Ok..I use Tracktion 2 as my host. I get my drum sounds in battery..BUT..I really like Fruity loops quantize a lot. so much that I have spent hours trying to figure out how the hell to get it to spit out a simple quantized hi hat pattern into MIDI so I can take that MIDI info and drag it into my Hi hat channel...is this possible? I feel like it is, and I'd like to know how to do it. I am not succeeding at all.

well if you written the part in FL and you're saying you want to convert it to midi go tools>use macros>prepare for midi export...then file>export>midi file...

are you using the step sequencer or piano roll?

ok..i messed w/ the MIDI out insert and am struggling / it..that's why I posted. I am using the piano roll in drum synth...is this the way to go?
Maybe a better quesion is pretend you are trying to quantize your hats in FL and want to export the uantized MIDI out into Tracktion..how would you do it?

to do what you want ...
01.] make one , and only one , midi out channel insert ...
02.] copy , and paste the midi data from your hi-hat channel into the midi out channel insert ...
03.] select 'file' ...'export'...'midi file' ...
04.] name , and save this file , to , for instance , your desktop ...
05.] hit start ...
06.] wait a bit ... you can see the % progress ...
07.] when done , you will have a midi file , with that channel only ...
08.] import into T2 , or where-ever ...

right click on the channel name tab ...
you will get a menu list ...
select 'edit' ...'copy' ...
right click on the midi out channel name tab ...
select 'edit'...'paste' ...
voila ...

To complicate things a bit, or give more options. you can rewire them or simply export the hi hats as a wav file. exporting as a wav is my favorate option since it will save cpu in the long run.
Always remember that others may hate you but those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself.
