Studio One uses a threshold for MIDI files, perhaps around 50KB in size, where if a MIDI file is over that threshold it will not import in to an existing song, but instead will create a new song. When you export a MIDI file of all the tracks you've created, it's only providing you with the notes and some basic control change information. Studio One can import and read this information but nothing can be written inside the tracks themselves unless it can be written as simple automation (which is how S1 handles these events).

| Hi, With V2 I used to be able to drag and drop it into the arrange window but this does not appear to work any more. I also cannot drag & drop audio files any more, but the 'Import File' option works for audio. Not for MIDI though. Any suggestions? I am also now working with S1 v3 on WIndows 10. Rgds, Mick. |
You can use the Import Song Data feature in Studio One 4 for track templates and have your favorite track configurations templates more accessible when working by following the steps below. This setup makes your favorite track configurations easier to access without having to look through all of your song files for a song with a particular favorite track configuration.
| Import MIDI works the same V2. Not sure you details yet but the issue you might be running into is he length of the MIDI file. As with V2 a short less complicated song will drag in fine. A longer more complex song will prompt to start a new song. This has been brought up for years as an area for improvement.

| Thanks for the response. When I attempt to drag either a MIDI or audio file into the arrange window I get the 'Invalid file' mouse icon. I can use the menu option to import audio but not MIDI. I'm a bit stuck as I have just received a MIDI part of a piano overdub that I need to get into an existing song. This all worked as expected in V2. |
| Sounds like a permission issue. (Have you tried running S1 as admin privileges?) What are you specs? Please see my signature for a link to add to your signature.

| I am running S1 with admin privileges as I had to enable that option to use jbridge. I've managed to find a work around: I am able to drag the files in from the built in 'Files' browser (RHS) of S1 screen. It's a pain though as I normally leave that window set to my own plug in presets. Still, at least I'm not held up now. Rgds, Mick. |
| I could only get it to work by copying the MIDI files to the Studio One folder and accessing from the Files tab. However it does work quite well - if you export MIDI files from another DAW you can do several at a time and you then they show separately as MIDI tracks under that main MIDI file. I only had trouble when the files were not exported properly (when exporting you have to Play enable the tracks you want to export - obvious I guess!).
