Default Re: Extract .mid file from .ptx file

I'm not saying it isn't possible, because with enough effort, I'm sure someone could figure it out, but it is not something you can easily do.
First of all, the ptx file format is not public so no one except Avid knows what's in there. Second, just looking at the content of the file, it does not seem to store MIDI info as a standard MIDI file. There are no chunk markers in the file, so they must be storing it in their own format and only write it in MIDI file format when you export from a session.

Hope that helps a little.
