MT Power Drum Kit 2 ... saving "Grooves".

Hi everyone, nice to be part of the community.
I'm enjoying getting to use LMMS, and have added the "MT Power Drum Kit 2" file to my VST armoury. However, I am unable to convert OR SAVE any "Groove" collection as a MIDI file. Any information or advice would be very welcome.

Thanks,
Phil ....

I feel that this is not an LMMS issue. The grooves you create in the VST has to created, saved, and loaded in the VST, not LMMS. LMMS should in fact only start and stop your VST at command-position.
A drum-machine is similar in functionality to a sampler or a sequenser. You can see how LMMS host a Sequencer here in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2e1ZDsI3aFw&t=10s
You need to make sure your drum-machine can be embedded in the same way, and you ned to make sure that it also can pass the 5-point-test

Ah, I see .... sorry for this mistake.
I'll seek a remedy via the VST supplier. If I fail, I'll just delete the programme.
Thanks for the kind welcome!!
