3. Select Export MIDI… in the context menu (the picture below shows the context menu fora Sound).4. In the Export MIDI dialog that opens, navigate to the desired location on your computer,type a name for the MIDI file and click Save to confirm.→ The MIDI file is exported to the selected location.Sounds which do not contain note events in a Group Pattern are exported as empty MIDItracks. This way, if you are exporting multiple Patterns and some Sounds in the Group onlyhave notes in some of these Patterns, you will get a consistent assignment of notes to MIDItracks across all exported Patterns. Also, when you export a Pattern and then re-import it intoMASCHINE, the notes will always be mapped to the correct Sounds.11.8.3 Importing MIDI to PatternsYou can import MIDI files (extension “.mid”) to Patterns. This allows you to use in MASCHINEMIDI files prepared with another application. This function is only available in the software.Importing MIDI data into a Pattern that already contains data (note, modulation tracks, and MIDItracks) will replace that data. As always, this can be undone both in the software or from your con-troller (see section ↑3.3.3, Undo/Redo).Working with PatternsImporting/Exporting Audio and MIDI to/from PatternsMASCHINE MIKRO - Manual - 537
