Hi, I bought the Performer' edition. I can add midi files via the Add file(s) button and they show up under the button along with the audio file I am using. They are not showing up in the source box so I can't use them. Only the audio file shows up.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian
Midi files not showing up in the source
Re: Midi files not showing up in the source
Can you please post a screenshot of the source drop-down box when it’s open?

Are you sure you have the Performer edition? You are also missing the OSC input…

Re: Midi files not showing up in the source
The thought I may have purchased the basic version did cross my mind. so I checked. it says on the invoice I have the performer edition and I spent $79.95 so I guess I must have the performer (although at the moment I'm not getting the functionallity) ! What is the OSC input?
thanks
thanks
Re: Midi files not showing up in the source
The only other thing I can think of is that you must have disabled MIDI/OSC in the main Window menu.

Re: Midi files not showing up in the source
Yes I just came on line to tell you I had indeed had the midi/osc disabled........ I just noticed it.
I managed to work around the problem (before we fixed it) by saving individual tracks from my DAW and importing them into the Magic Visual editor instead of using midi files. However I'll have to import the rendered result into a video editor and delete the sound file and replace it with the original mixdown as the audio files I imported in magic changed the mix. So it's possible to use the cheaper version without midi by using individual audio files. In some cases it's better to work this way as with some midi files just a single note is played and this triggers a sequencer and the sequence won't show up when imported into magic.
Thanks for your help!
