BM3-General MIDI File Import/Export
Been holding my breath for the release of BM3 for a loooong time!
Just wondering if BM3 would allow the import of multi-channel General MIDI song files, and be able to automatically create multiple tracks and match the BM3 internal sounds to the channel Instrument. This is something that I do not think BM2 can do(from memory I think BM2 can only import the entire file into one single track under one instrument).
I do use GM files a lot(both because I have a huge collection and that I often receive GM from composers who compose their piece on desktop with the likes of Sibelius/Musecore and send me their exported GM files and it would be great to be able to listen to and edit these files. Currently I believe the only DAW apps on the iPhone(I do use my iPhone more than the iPad) is Music Studio which does quite a good job in this. It can also export the project as a multi-channel GM file as well.
Please, let this function be in BM3!!!

MIDI export is not yet available in BM3 but will be back at some point!
MIDI import is there -- you need to use the 'Files' browser mode and drag'n'drop the files onto the SONG editor.
Cheers,

Please Mat.... This is a must have feature... We need it..
I was able to import a MIDI file via drag'n'drop. Are there any instructions on doing a GM mapping? I looked through the Content Store for a GM Kit, but didn't see any. I discovered a nasty bug. When I tried to use the search function in the store it causes BM3 to crash.
