    Thanks for the quick reply! I guess the issue is with my VST host, not Podium.

    Thanks for the help, everyone! And I figured out a workaround until the bug gets fixed: just set the audio output to some device, create the arrangement, and then set the audio output to “NONE” again (and hit “Update Audio and MIDI Mappings”). I guess the audio out enables the creation of the master, but after the master is created, the audio out can be safely disabled.

    It should of course be possible to manually create a new arrangement from scratch, using only MIDI tracks, to replicate the way a MIDI file is imported.

    To clarify, do you mean that it ought to be possible but isn’t at the moment, or that it is possible and I’m doing it wrong? 😕

    Oh, and sorry about the size of the images–I would have made thumbnails and linked to the full images, but I don’t know how. 😆

    It looks like both your arrangements are missing the master track. The only reason I can think of why it wouldn’t be created automatically is if your project doesn’t have any audio output mappings at all – did you configure your audio interface correctly? If not, select “MIDI/Audio Interfaces…” from the setup menu.

    I tried enabling an audio interface (ASIO4ALL), even though I don’t need it, but it didn’t help.

    I suspect your trouble with deleting tracks also stems from this, since the tracks you created (like in your second screenshot) are “outside” of the normal track hierarchy, as they’re directly on the “master” level instead of belonging to (or feeding into) a single master output track… Podium probably assumes they’re master tracks. This is just for your information – it’s of course possible to have multiple master tracks, for example to create different monitor mixes.

    Shouldn’t I still be able to delete masters?

    Once you have a ‘normal’ master track set up, you’ll be able to delete tracks perfectly fine. 😉

    Ok, I tried making a master track and then another track inside the master, but then the master track’s name disappeared and I still couldn’t delete either track, assign a MIDI output, or create a sequence.

    (And something I forgot to mention earlier: when I’m editing an imported MIDI file, there’s an “Insert New Track” option on the Track menu, whereas when I’m making an arrangement from scratch, there’s no such option, and the menu won’t even open until I make a new track (with the “+” button). Is that significant? Maybe there’s something wrong with my installation–I’ll try re-installing Podium.)
