Default Re: Export Midi - chords lost

Hello, Bernd:

Do you mean the Chord Symbols above the score? Or do you mean a staff with chords (notes) in it?

Chord Symbols are not a part of the MIDI format -- they are a specific part of the Notation Composer file. If you export the file to .mid format, you will lose any special annotations and symbols. MIDI simply contains note on/note off, velocity and controller messages, no fancy notation information which is carried in Composer's .not file format.

If you mean you've lost actual notes in chords, then that's something deeper we'll have to investigate.
