Thanks Lotuzia, 1.5.0b for Windows works fine now! Just a heads-up: noticed the Mac file was still on 1.5.0, but maybe it simply wasn't updated.

Post

i am also on live 10 and have no idea how to get a pattern out of stix into my sequencer

Post

I've just noticed the same problem reported above on OSX latest Logic

Which ever notes are in the sequence, they are all triggered on step one of the dragged-and-dropped pattern

Can confirm that the update seems to have fixed the problem, nice to see such prompt fixes (along with all the other improvements in the update - loving the tighter envelopes

It was incorrect maybe twice out of the first 8 attempts but it is now working consistently no matter what I throw at it.
Thanks Bob for the report. Well, waiting some confirmations from Simmo75 and Shonky, or other Ableton Live 10 users, to see if the last beta corrected this problem for them also.
Okay, so it looks like I jumped the gun a bit here. The issue with the multiple notes at the start of each midi file IS fixed but I have noticed that the timing/placing of the notes is not correct at all.

I have tested drag and drop and the Midifile.mid and used only patterns with 0% Swing on a one bar loop,
but every drag and drop is out of time

Can someone else please take a look and see If this is happening for them.

It's just a tag in the about box. Mac File stays on 1.5.0 until v1.5.1 will be released with every detail fixed

Thanks. The problem seems not 100% fixed on all os/daw combinations though.
I'll et back on the super tight envelopes and other features when all will be fixed.

Just click on the icon located at the right of the 'SOng Settings' button in the pattern area (the one under the word 'xils') Then drag'n'drop the pattern in your daw track.

So after some further investigations, please try the following :

1/ If Live 10 asks if you want to 'import Tempo and time signature' answer : NO. If you answer 'yes' the timing will be incorrect.
2/ Seems trivial, but be sure that your grid lock/magnet mode is activated (The mode that make you place the pattern/file/clip at the 1st tick of the beginning of a bar).

With these conditions it does work in a reliable way at Xils.

It seems like sometimes the pattern imports ok and others it has as above with random notes on the first sub-division... Close but no cigar

can you explain what does the lines in ControlMIDI file means?
I'd like to make a complete MIDI assign procedure workin' directly on the file.
thanks
You have all the parameters that can be assigned to a Midi Cc so that you can automate them from a midi keyboard/surface control etc.

The number between the # for each line is the Midi Cc the parameter is linked to. It it's set to -1, then no number is assigned.
Parameters names should be selkf explanatory, but keep in mind that in StiX midi automation is channelized . So say you want to use Mid Cc n°21 to control the filter-cut-off. If you send this message on midi channel 2, you'll adress the Bass Drum cut-off. If you send this message on midi channel n°3 you'll control the SNARE cut-off. And so on for the 10 midi channels, and for all parameters (but you only need to define each midi Cc once of course in the file)

All in all, you can control live more than 1000 parameters in StiX, including all synthesis parameters, but also mixer channels levels etc, using up to 10 midi channels simultaneously. i never tried so many, but up to 30 parameters works OK and very smoothly here.

To all : Regarding the possible remaining problem of Drag'n'Drop pattern to daw in Ableton Live 10, we have now succeded to get it 100% working within certain conditions (see post above). We could however reproduce the primary bug. For Logic, we could not reproduce it (means it works 100% ok from the beginning). It also works in other hosts (Cubase etc). If some of you still have problems withthis precise function, please contact Xils-Lab directly, using the following form :

https://www.xils-lab.com/support

Xils-Lab will ask you some more detailed information to track the possible remaining problems. This can't be handled via the forum anymore, as detailed info is really needed to go further. Thanks to all for the feedback, and your future help.

Before I explain more in detail all the new features in StiX 1.5, here's a video demsontrating one of the features that went a bit under the radar with StiX 1.0 :
