How to combine MIDI take lanes?

Hey y'all,
I opened a (almost all midi) project that was created in X2 in X3e.
All of the tracks are now separate audio and midi with lots and lots of take lanes.
I know some of you prefer it this way but I don't (after trying it a few times).
I'd like to have them all in simple instrument tracks and not split into takes.
Is there an easy way to do this or would I have to go thru the comping procedure and then delete the take lanes?
Thanks very much,
Randy

    You could merge the clips by selecting them and choosing "bounce to clip", but I'm not sure that's what you want if they really are multiple takes.

    The easiest way I found to perform this task is:
    bind "Bounce to Clip(s) to a keyboard shortcut" (I used u in this example).
    click in the main track to select the track and run this autohotkey script (which is bound to Window-x)
     
    #x::
      MouseClick,Right
      Send,m{Enter}u
      MouseClick,Right
      Send,y
      Return
     
    The script runs "Delete Muted Takes", "Bounce to Clip(s)" and "Remove Empty Take Lanes"

    Once you "bounce to clips", make sure to select the entire midi clip and run the "undupe" cal file.

    Notation, the original DAW. Everything else is just rote. We are who we are and no more than another. Humans, you people are crazy.
