Re: Some BCR funtion questions

Why did you connect it to your Mac via Midi. Have you tried USB with the USB3 setting?

But if I load one sysex preset, another gets overwritten unless I copy the already present preset to another location. I'd like to know, can you determine beforehand to what location the preset loads?

But when I connect the midi out of the BCR to the midi in of my midi card, I can not edit the DW8000. Yet, when I connect a midi keyboard to that same port 8, I can play the DW8000. I can't imagine this is normal, so am I overlooking something?
