How to drag and drop MIDI to DAW in only one MIDI clip ?

There was an error rendering this rich post.

When dragging Maschine 2 midi into my DAW, I get ALL instrument tracks of a group copied into the DAW. Each time I have to clean up all the empty ones. Often there is only one active instrument in a group, so this is a time wasting mess.

Is there any setting or method to import only instruments with actual midi content, and NOT get all the empty trash into the DAW, for all groups?

Hey @jimknopf01 You have to right-click in your group, go to Group MIDI Batch Setup and choose "Sounds to MIDI notes"

Ah, I had completely forgotten about that, though it's part of multi-step tutorials about using Maschine within a DAW.

Thank you very much for the time saving reminder!

If you use sounds to midi note it doesn't sound right even if you move them to middle C3 is there a solution for this?

Hey Zhou,

Figured I'd reply here as I struggled with the same issue when trying to drag whole midi clips into pro tools from Pad Mode.

@Jeremy_NI is correct, set the group batch Midi setting to "sounds to midi notes".

But THEN be sure your Group > Input > Midi > Routing is set to Manual. Also deactivate the original Pattern clip in Maschine. Should then trigger correct samples.

Hope this helps.
