When Opening a song, ask to ‘Close current Song(s)?’:
Whenever you load a new song before closing the old one,
MAGIX midi studio generation 6 will ask whether the cur-
rent song should be closed.
Add ‘Last Edit Function’ to sequence name: After perform-
ing any edit operation (e.g. cutting), the description of the
edit operation is added to the name of the arrange object
(or resulting objects).
Disable safety alert for ‘Undo’: This means that no safety
alert appears when you call up the undo function.
Enable Catch when sequencer starts: Every time you start
the sequencer (start or pause), the catch function is auto-

Enable Catch when moving song position: The “Enable

you move the SPL, the Catch function (screen view follows
SPL) is switched on.
Allow Content Catch by Position if Catch and Link enabled:
If the catch and content catch functions are active, the con-

still follows the song position within the displayed se-
quence, but does not update to show the contents of sub-
sequent sequences when they become the current se-

ther transposed or moved in time, but not both at once.
This prevents accidental alteration of the other parameter.
Limit dragging to one direction in Arrange: This restricts
the direction you can move sequences in the Arrange win-
dow, in a similar way to, and for the same reasons, as the
option above.
Hide Windows of inactive Songs: If this check box is
checked, the display looks much better when several
Songs are open at the same time.
‘Export MIDI File…’ saves single sequences as Format 0: If
only one sequence is selected when you choose File > Ex-
port Selection as MIDI File… the contents of the sequence
are saved in MIDI file format 0.This file format is guaran-
