[RWP] Reaper Glitch?

[Gianluca Apollaro]

Hi list,
As far as I know, when you record a midi the midi does not get saved in 
the folder, as it happens with audio, but the midi content is in the rpp 
itself. In fact, I once sent an rpp file with a midi item recorded on 
and my friend who got only the rpp file had the midi item regularly playing.
hth,
Best regards,
Gianluca from italy.
