Seems very useful, good job! Can I ask, what if I don't have a midi clip but only a midi generator on the track? What is the length going to be?

This device is only for printing MIDI effects as MIDI Generators already print the MIDI information by default

Opens a new channel but nothing gets printed becuase it defaults to "post FX" input which doesn't include MIDI. Also, sometimes crashes the program, freezes it for a long period, or adds an additional track when hitting "stop" after use. (Using version 12.2).

You're better off just adding a new "MIDI Print" track and choosing the input yourself.

Wasted $5.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. You are absolutely right and I just released an update 1.3 that solves this issue and also add an option to auto-delete the MIDI effects on the original track.

Please let me know if you have any other issues.

Okay. It's printing the MIDI data to a new track now, but it's putting a random synth from my plugin collection on the new track; as well as the MIDI sequencer and modulation devices from the target track. It also freezes Ableton for several seconds, both when you engage the plugin and stop playback.

I'm happy to send you a screengrab of the issues if it's helpful.

^ it's also causing freezing within my session even when I'm not using the device. When I stop audio, or click on new trackers, I get freezing. When I remove MIDI Bounce, these problems disappear.

I've updated the device again, please let me know if you're issues persist.
If they do, please feel free to email me info@sidebrain.net and hopefully we can solve them.
