Turn a version's notes into markers, so each one lands at the right spot in your session.

## Export

1. Open the song's menu and choose **Export notes**.
2. Pick a format (see below).
3. Set the options, then download.

| Format | Use it for | How to bring it in |
| --- | --- | --- |
| MIDI file (.mid) | Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Cubase, Nuendo | See the steps below |
| REAPER markers (.csv) | REAPER | View > Region/Marker Manager, right-click, import |
| Audacity labels (.txt) | Audacity | File > Import > Labels |
| Notes list (.csv) | Spreadsheets, Ableton Live, any DAW | Open it like any spreadsheet |

## Options

- **Song starts at:** if the song doesn't start at 0:00 in your session, enter where it does (like 90, 1:30 or 1:00:00). Every marker shifts by that much.
- **Session tempo (BPM):** for MIDI files, so markers land on the right bar.
- **Include resolved notes:** off by default, so you only get what's still open.
- **Include replies:** on by default. Replies are added to their note's marker, or get their own row in the notes list.

## Bringing a MIDI file into your DAW

- **Pro Tools:** in a session with no markers yet, choose File > Import > MIDI, with Import Tempo Map From MIDI File turned on.
- **Logic Pro:** open the file with File > Open. It opens as a new project with the markers.
- **Cubase and Nuendo:** turn on Import Markers in Preferences > MIDI > MIDI File, then choose File > Import > MIDI File.

> [!NOTE]
> "No open notes found" means every note on that version is resolved. Turn on **Include resolved notes** to export them anyway.
