Basically, I couldn't get the midi working properly any other way, I was having problems with the drum track (channel 10) triggering other tracks. So a buddy of mine showed me how to work around it by importing the midi file into Cubase & using remix. I do actually find this very easy to work with, but you have to remember to mute the midi track you've imported, otherwise you get a flange thing happening. Plus, you can still edit the midi this way.
