Greetings!
I'm a newb to the forum and to MIDI, but have been engineering on and off for years now. I am currently running ProTools LE 6.9 on a G4, and I have a quick MIDI question: I am trying to use a MIDI keyboard/controller to record a stereo track of BFD for a demo. Prior to using the keyboard I simply wrote in all the MIDI notes manually. Anyway, I'm wondering if I can "overdub" MIDI, meaning can I take a 1st pass on my MIDI channel to record kick and snare, and then go back and "overdub" the hihat / cymbals on the same MIDI track without erasing the pass of kick and snare that I already recorded? Basically I'm hoping that I can use MIDI and BFD to operate very similarly to how an old school drum machine works. Any help or advice would be great, thanks! |

So you are confirming that there is an overdub mode, which is awesome! But, I'm wondering if you know what option/setting puts midi into "overdub" mode, I'm looking around the midi options and I'm not seeing anything obvious. Anyone know? Thank you for the response!
