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! smile.gif

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!
