JoceyMusic Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hey everyone. Just joined this forum, and going to introduce myself in just a few hours, just need to ask this quick question, I've tried to use the search function but hasn't been able to find any appropriate answer on the pages I've been scrolling trough. Whatsoever, I am going to do a remix of a track, and I imported the MIDI needed. But, whenever i then apply a VST (Sylenth-1 In this case) it keeps going to back to the first preset of the sound-bank. Therefore, whenever i make choose another preset, and I push play, it goes back to the first preset of the sound bank chosen. I hope somebody out there are able to help me, and thanks for letting me join this forum. And i apologize if this question has already been solved for some, but I haven't been able to locate it. I hope I'd get some good times in here, and meet some nice friends, all using Logic:) Thanks in advance. - Jocey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpleton Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 it sounds like there is a program change in the MIDI data select the MIDI region in the Arrange and hit "E" - this will open the Event List for the MIDI region. check the Event List for an unwanted Program Change and delete it! p.s. you may also have unwanted control data (volume?) in the list that you'd also want to delete. this data would interfere with Automation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoceyMusic Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Thanks mate! I figured out the problem. The reason the problem is, is that when you import MIDi it makes it on the Grand Piano. Therefor in the E section, it creates 5 programs, in which the presets are lying in. Just delete them, and it'll be fine once again! Thanks a lot man! Helped me really much! - Jocey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matiasbona Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I'm having the exact same problem but I don't know how to solve it, can anyone explain it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakobP Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Try the above but press D instead of E. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matiasbona Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Try the above but press D instead of E. Yeah I opened the event list but I don't know what to look for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Cardenas Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Look at the beginning of that list. Do you have any Program, Volume, or Pan events? Feel free to post a screenshot if you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g11ten Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 very Simple if you have Midi assigned to a vst, 1- Open the midi file, go to events, un tick the Notes, and delete everything else in the midi file information, your vst will work and wont change back to default .

JakobP Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 That would also delete e.g. modulation-, pitchbend- and sustain- controls, which isn't always desired. The Program Change events is the ones to delete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g11ten Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 first you need to delete all the events in midi file and stabilize the VST, once you done that, you can create all your modulation-, pitchbend- and sustain- controls, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakobP Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Why not recreate the notes as well then, so you don't have to import at all ? No, seriously, if you import e.g. a midi piano piece performed by a good piano player, and then delete the sustain info, you have essentially ruined that midi file.

g11ten Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Well Jakob, well said, but work smarter not harder, try to keep one element as you suggested the sustain see if it work for you, for me I have imported midi files with notes,sustain, and velocity it worked, the rest was chucked in the bin, it all depends who and where you import midi files, as some do put codes in the midi events to restrict or loop. its all about try and error buddy !
