The only sensible way I can think of to deal with this would be to pre-group these tracks and export multiple MIDI files, subsequently importing them to L... L... L..., er, the other app, in a cumulative fashion.
Could get messy if indeed it works. In theory, that is.
fair enough. though you can use freebie utilities like sysex librarian to deal with those. i know that at various stages, most daws seem to run into sysex issues. sysex editor lets you dump to and from the synth, so you could just save the sysex files in your project folder, and leave them out of the project itself, unless you're dealing with using them on the fly during a project.
Yet another app. that needs to be compatible and work, probably many years into the future.
Attempting to adhere to the KISS principle.
Good suggestion anyway, Kell.

Good call, Kell; thanks mate.

Aah... so it's not just me?
It's kinda handy to be able to store, say, 100 songs in a single folder amounting to no more than a few MB.

Yeah, that Hobby character's a right pocket drain; he's got expensive taste.
Have you seen the guitars he's been looking at lately?
Very true, Kell. It's the bane of my life - that's how true it is.
Oh well, we must focus where our passions lie, I suppose.

you're welcome nicky. anytime at all. feel free to ask any further hypothetical questions should they arise. you'll always find help here, even if it is with l...l...l...well, you know.

Thank you, Kell.
Y'know, I did wonder last night how a L... L... L... help area might go down in these parts.
I mean, if so many of us (and there are a few) also use L... L... the app, and DP resides and is often running concurrently on these machines, it stands to reason that the quality of advice on offer could be invaluable.
Further, it would negate the need for we cosy 'Cornies to venture into the Big Blue Unknown, if you know what I mean.
