When I drag a midi file like a drum pattern to my midi track it produces a separate "SysEx Data" track. Happens every time now though it didn't used to. I must've changed something somewhere. Don't even know what it is but I surely don't want it.
Any help would be appreciated.

in Preferences, filter out SysEx. You may have ticked it by accident in there? By default it's filtered out.

Bingo! You nailed it! Much appreciated jancivil. That was driving me nuts and I was on the midi file page instead of the midi filter page. Thanks alot!!!

good deal. I hit shit by accident too frequently, resulting in behaviors I really never want.

I've been suffering from a SysEx track being created with midi import (Cubase 10) and I have to say that I found the Midi Filter preferences do not effect the creation of a SysEx track when dragging midi from the browser.
I get the impression that SysEx is ticked by default to filter them out of recordings and midi thru messages - either way the option doesn't stop a SysEx track being created when midi is dragged and dropped - tick or no tick.

I have gone through every option in preferences and cannot find a way to stop the SysEx track from being created.

Grum.

Hmmm. Well, I don't know where to look for MIDIs with SysEx so I can't see if the problem replicates here.

I just dragged some midi groove clips from one of the additional content packs that come with Cubase.
It doesn't take much to kill the extra lane in the sequencer but it would be nice not to have to.

Grum.

Oh. Yeah I installed absolutely none of that.

Actually I kept the installer I think. I'll see if I can reproduce this later.

The only MIDIs I've imported create an empty additional track called "MIDI" and if there's sus pedal that's now three tracks.
I wonder if dblock is sorted by the filtering and you're not if it's down to particular files?

from one of the additional content packs

Well, I have drag/dropped several out of Content/Padshop/.../MIDI Files/World Percussions now and none do that.

It looks like other than that I'd have to install it again, and still I don't know what I'm looking for.
Additional Content on the .dmg are '.vst Sound' and I wouldn't know how to take a MIDI out of any of that. But that bit is apparent in that directory as .mid.

As far as I know there isn't a filter for the imported file. It yanks in whatever info is in the file.

Cubase 10 Keep getting separate "SysEx Data" trk when I drop midi file on track
