Would it be possible to have RT's MIDI read only while in BiaB/RB but still available for us to export to other DAW's as regular MIDI?

Unless I'm mistaken I can see some pluses but many minuses in this wish for MIDI users.


Good points Mario. In my mind there is a difference between editing and copying. When you edit you're trying to modify existing data. You're deleting, cutting, adding and pasting. When you copying you're not modifying the existing data. Instead you're creating a duplicate of the data and moving the duplicate data into a new file. The new, midi only data file will not have the constraints of the original RealTracks created file.

It's sort of how you take a copy protected file, use the "save as" command to save a duplicate of the file under a new name and then work on the duplicate file.
