Logic Pro X / Export Midi File /

Hello,


In Logic Pro X I have written a bass line with a midi keyboard using the fingered bass sound that comes with Logic.


I have then Exported the bass line converting it to a MIDI file..


However, when I drag the MIDI file into GarageBand (Mac) it converts into numerous tracks each playing a few notes of my original bass line?



What am I doing wrong and how do I fix this?


Thank you for your help.


MacBook Pro 15", macOS 10.13

I have found the answer. I needed to save the MIDI region in format 0.




Save a MIDI region in file format 0


  1. Select the “‘Export MIDI File…’ saves single MIDI Regions as Format 0” checkbox in the Logic Pro > Preferences > General > Project Handling pane.
  2. Select a MIDI region, then choose File > Export > Selection as MIDI File.
