I just bought a sequencer (roland mc-500) to go with my emax, but it would seem that they don't like talking to each other. When I bought my emax, I didn't get a manual, so there might be some super easy way to switch it to sequencer, and I dont know it. So if you do, then please let me know. I'm also pursuing the problem from the sequencer side in case that is the problem. Thanks for your help.

I'd start by downloading the manual from http://www.emulatorarchive.com. If you plan on
using it as a mullti-timbral sound source you'll find that it's not that easy or fun to work
with that way (IMHO).

I downloaded the manual (thanks for the address) and in the supermode section, it says how to download sequences from the sequencer, but not how to send sounds to the sequencer from the sampler. I think that I am planning on using the emax as a multi-timbral sound source (in your words). You will have to forgive me. I am an old style musician, and I am rather new to midi and digital music in general, but I am not afraid of complexity. I really like the sounds and the flexibility of the emax, and I want to use it with my sequencer. --- In emax@y..., "John Silveria" <emaxjs@c...> wrote: > I'd start by downloading the manual from http://www.emulatorarchive.com.

You won't be sending any actual sounds to the MC-500. The MC-500 records the
incoming MIDI data like note on/off, velocity, wheel movements. To get started you
should be first try to hook the MIDI IN and Out to the respective jacks on the MC-500.
Remember the OUT of the Emax goes to the IN of the MC-500. Also you will want to go
into Master 9 - 1 (or is it 0?) where you can set the MIDI channel the Emax will send and
receive on. MAke sure you set the MC-500 to transmit the MIDI data you record back on
the same channel. From there try to start recording what you play, avoid using
Supermode until after you get the basics down with that set-up.

Thanks for the advice, but there seems to be one problem. My emax (which is an emax 1) doesn't have a master 9 selection at all. I searched around, and the only thing that I could find that was anything like what you said was the MIDI overflow control. Perhaps the emax 2 has a master 9 function? Thanks again for your help, and if you can think of anything elase, then please let me know. --- In emax@y..., "John Silveria" <emaxjs@c...> wrote: > You won't be sending any actual sounds to the MC-500.

Been so long since I've used an Emax. I think it actually might be Master 0 on the Emax.
It's Master | Special | MIDI Master as I recall it.
