Converting Drummer Regions to MIDI Regions

Converting Drummer Regions to MIDI Regions

If you need absolute control over a Drummer region, you can convert it to a MIDI region. Two methods are available for converting a Drummer region to MIDI:

  • Drag any drummer region to a MIDI track. The region will automatically convert to a MIDI region.
  • Command-click a Drummer region and choose Convert > Convert to MIDI Region. The region will convert to MIDI, and the Drummer editor will no longer be available.
TIP: You can convert a MIDI region on a Drummer track back to a Drummer region by Command-clicking the region and choosing Convert > Convert to Drummer Region. However, any edits you made to the MIDI region will not be saved after the conversion.
