I've lost (deleted) the MIDI files for many of my song's drumming parts. I'm wondering if I'm able to recover them, basically, by approaching this backwards.
We know you can bounce the MIDI tracks out your DAW and have access to the wav's of each track. We also know you can use an out source, like drum pads, to create the MIDI files as you play. So....
Would it be possible to use the wav's (that I still have access to) to create MIDI? That way, I can have it like it was before I bounced them and reprogram them over again, where needed. I'm just thinking it might somehow be possible to have the wav's trigger the MIDI SD pieces just like they were incoming signals via electronic drum kit.
I have zero idea how to do this, if it's even possible. An obvious issue would be room noise/ambiance burned into the OH mic, for example, of the wav file. Perhaps it only takes peaks? Is this a ridiculous idea? Anyone?
