Hi there,

Dimension Pro has the possibility to drag n drop Midifiles (from Grooves) into the sequenzer - but ACID don´t allowed it !

If i do same with Stylus Rmx all happens and it creates a new track.....

Any idea or workaround ?

It depends on how Dimension Pro exposes the drag.

If it places the data in a format that ACID does not understand, then ACID will not permit it.

Other plugins - RMX, EZDrummer - work fine, so it is some kind of format incompatability.

We will look into it.

Have you contacted Cakewalk regarding this issue?

Hi Peter and thanks for answer....

yes i´ve started a topic at Cakewalk forum too....but currently no answer....

i´m wonder because Cubase SX-3 + Cubase4 + Reaper + Live allowed this without problems....

Please take a deeper look on it....

Hi Peter,

here is the answer from René (developer of Dimension Pro):

"Dimension Pro creates the file as a standard MIDI file. Any host in which you can drag a MIDI file from Windows Explorer into the host directly will allow direct Drag and Drop. "

Please check the problem -> because DimensionPro is my "main-synth" for composing :-( this is annoying.....

That is what we do and how other plugins that do work in ACID do it.

Can you drag a MIDI file from Windows Explorer into ACID?

Don't know what I can tell you beyond this.

Acid does have problems with some MIDI files. F.inst. the MIDI file Battery 3 generates when slicing a loop. I can import the file fine into energyXT, but Acid claims it's corrupted or an unknown format.
