Method 1 by Sound Yeti midi drag and drop filled with notes

[jandlab 3]

Hi Everyone,

I recently got into using Cakewalk recreationally, with a background of being a drummer twenty odd years ago. I have found so many tips and tricks from this forum, there is a wealth of knowledge and a very friendly bunch here. A huge thanks to those that contribute.

I entered the Sound Yeti Covid sweepstakes and won Method 1 drum sequencer last week and have been playing around with it. It is a licenced Kontakt plugin that I use the free player to control. Everything seems good until I try and drag midi out of Method 1 onto my instrument track (there is a button for doing this) and there is a small note at the beginning of every measure of every instrument as well as the expected midi notes. I dragged the midi to desktop and uploaded to an online midi player and that didnt show all these ghost notes. Has anyone else experienced anything like this and discovered a work around? I have included an attachment of one of the default patterns that I dragged to desktop.

I used to run CBB as Administrator ( as recommended on some audio forums ) but it prevented a plugin called Captain Keys from performing the same drag & drop midi operation.

Might be worth looking into.

Hi Mark, thanks for the response.

I used to run as admin due to issues with saving onto an internal disk that was not my boot drive, but I sorted my permissions and have just run for weeks now. Running with this line of investigation I started up as admin and couldnt drag the earlier posted midi file from desktop into an empty track, which worked when I tried the other day. As a sanity check I tried dragging midi from Air Strike VST and this worked fine and then retried dragging from Method 1 and had my problem. I have contacted support at Sound Yeti and will update once I get an answer.

I finally cured my problem using deglitch and choosing short notes. In case anyone else comes upon this or similar problems.
