Do one of the following:
µ
Choose File > Save As.
µ
Choose File > Project Settings > Assets (or use the Open Assets Project Settings key
command).

Working with Standard MIDI Files
Standard MIDI files are not specific to a particular sequencing program, hardware
sequencer, or type of computer. They contain the following information:
• MIDI events, including time positions and channel assignments
• Names of the individual tracks
• Names and positions of markers
• Tempo changes
• Copyright marks
Logic Express allows you to import, open, and export Standard MIDI file formats 0 and 1:
• Format 0 contains all data in one track.
• Format 1 can contain multiple tracks, each with independent data.
Neither format recognizes any division of a track (into several MIDI regions, for example).
