Re: [xl7] Recording Questions

2005-04-25 by chris jenkins

Thanks Aaron, although we use OS X in the studio, however I could use one of our PCs to do that. It would be nice if E-loader was available for OS X.
I've been reading the manual !!! and the MIDI reference on the XL group am am wondering if setting the output of the MP-7 to multi A or B then recording the MIDI data in Logic, this might work OK but I'm not sure about how to set up and record 16 channels at a time. I guess its tme to experiment with a few different options.

Simply work on the song in the MP-7, then when you're done (or at least
partially done) use E-Loader to upload the MIDI file.  Then you can use
a computer sequencer to do the finishing.  It will be far easier to
bonce one track at a time that way by simply soloing one track at a
time while recording.  That way, everything will be lined up timewise
too.
