CDK 2 Posted February 4 Hi everyone, I'm exporting a MIDI file from Cakewalk to open in another DAW but for some reason the tempo map/info isn't included. Have I missed something here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
57Gregy 276 Posted February 4 I don't think tempo is part of the MIDI standard. Whenever I drag a .mid into a project, it assumes the tempo already set in the project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CbB Import strips tempo data from MIDI files. Opening MIDI files preserves MIDI tempo data. MIDI file save and export include MIDI data. 10 hours ago, CDK said: I'm exporting a MIDI file from Cakewalk to open in another DAW but for some reason the tempo map/info isn't included. Have I missed something here? Not sure how the other DAW works but it should be easy to see if a MIDI file contains tempo by opening the file in CbB, playing the file or view the data using MIDICSV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
57Gregy 276 Posted February 5 Thanks. I was going by my too-faulty memory. Seems it's not getting any better as I travel through time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Vere 601 Posted February 5 Yes always OPEN a midi file. This is true for me not only Cakewalk, but with Cubase and Harrison Mix bus. I'm sure it's universal to all DAW's. Importing is not for whole songs but for when you want a midi clip added too a project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
