Exporting midi patterns

Postby heks » Tue Feb 03, 2015 9:08 am

I've been trying to wean myself off Orion ("Hi,,my name Chris I'm an Orion addict " :D ), but for me there's no other programme as easy to throw things together to get a project started (finishing is a different matter :oops: ).
I've normally "streamed to wave" individual tracks to finish in studio one, soundforge or X3. But now I'd like to export all the patterns A1, A2, etc as individual midi files to "reassemble" in another DAW. I've been messing with Export pattern and Export song to midi, but its a bit long winded. It would have been nice to have had something like "export all track patterns as individual files" but as development is on hold :cry: . Anyone have any tips?

put your pattern sequentially in your playlist :
instrument1 A1 A2 ...
instrument2 A1 A2 ...
stream
cut your pattern in your destination DAW

I totally agree, "finishing" your work is harder on Orion, more than any other DAW I've used. The sooner I break away the better, but some pieces I composed on it do not translate well to other DAWS, at least not without changing the sound significantly. Was gonna switch to Cakewalk, until I learned about their new cash-cow mode of renting software...Good luck!
