There are two basic ways to bring a Standard MIDI file into Logic. You can either open it as new project, or import it into an existing Logic project. In either case, all the MIDI note and controller data on each included track is brought into Logic, but there are some differences in how global project data such as tempo and time signatures are handled.
Opening a MIDI file as a new project
- Choose File > Open from the Logic menu.
- In the window that opens, navigate to the MIDI file on your hard drive and select it.
- Click the Open button.
When you open a MIDI file this way, all global project data including tempo and time signatures are included. This may be a good workflow if you are using the MIDI file as a starting point for your project.
Importing a MIDI file into an existing project
You may want to add data from a MIDI file to an existing Logic project. In this case, you can import the MIDI file rather than opening it as a new project.
- Open the Logic project.
- Choose File > Import from the Logic menu.
- In the window that opens, navigate to the MIDI file on your hard drive and select it.
- Click the Import button.
In this workflow, all the tracks are imported, but tempo data and time signatures are ignored, preserving the existing global data in your project.
Note: You can also import a MIDI file into a project by dragging the file from the Finder onto the Arrange window.

How Logic assigns tracks from MIDI files
When you either open or import a MIDI file, by default Logic assigns software instruments to each track from the MIDI file. Logic assigns instruments according to the first program change message in each track based on the General MIDI specification. If you prefer not to load software instruments for the tracks from MIDI files, press the Command key when you open or import the MIDI file (when choosing Import from the File menu). Logic will create a Multi instrument and assign channels from it to tracks in the Arrange window.

In this segment, Carlo teaches you how to import WAV files into PreSonus Studio One!
Why do I need to import audio into my session?
The answer is simple: if a client has asked you to mix previously recorded material, you’ll need to import those tracks into Studio One to get started.
Make sure the files you’ve received are consolidated. This means that each track starts from 00:00:00, so that everything lines up and plays back correctly.
You’ll also need to note the sample rate and bit depth of the WAV files you’re importing. To do this on a Mac, simply right click one of the audio files and come down to Get Info. Here, you’ll find out what sample rate and bit depth the audio files are in.
Importing WAV Files in Studio One
The next step is to open Studio One and select Create New Song. Here, you’ll match the sample rate and bit depth of the new session to the files you’ll be importing. 24-bit/44.1 kHz is typical.
