<dfn>Add Existing Media</dfn> dialog, accessed by the <kbd class="menu">

There are three MIDI-specific options as well. First off, you can set a track
|
||||
naming scheme:
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<table class="dl">
|
||||
<tr><th>by track number</th><td>will automatically assign every track a name that consists of the imported file name and a track number</td></tr>
|
||||
<tr><th>by track name</th><td>will</td></tr>
|
||||
<tr><th>by instrument name</th><td>will</a></td></tr>
|
||||
</table>

|
||||
You can also optionally import a tempo map from a MIDI file.
|
||||
The <kbd class="menu">Use MIDI Tempo Map (if defined)</kbd> option appears
|
||||
when a MIDI file is selected in the file selection dialog.

|

The last MIDI-specific option is <kbd class="menu">Import MIDI Markers
|
||||
(if any)</kbd>. If those are present in a MIDI file, they will be rendered
|
||||
right above MIDI clips on the canvas. Editing the MIDI markers is currently
|
||||
unavailable.

Finally, and most importantly, the files can be linked or copied to the session
