Re: What are my chances of getting the source code for the mp-7?

2005-08-10 by malik

I'd like to work in the os i think. and maybe make it easier for you 
to reach the options in the multisetups. since i'm kinda slow as you 
guys know and am still working my head around sysex like steve the 
composer is using. also accessing grid mode while the emu is playing 
and not having to stop it would be so nice.

also for reapairs. my emu acts up sometimes with these stop/play 
freezes and the right channle on the main out doesnt seem to be 
working either...(and  i still cant use the gate function in grid 
mode..)

i have a few more ideas i think. but i just dont have em in the 
front of my mind right now and cant recall them.

when i got the command station i got it mainly as a controller. and 
am so impressed at what it can do with midi. but at the same time 
with all the features, the lack of a few that i feal practical is 
disapointing.

in either case it's still a great machine and shouldnt be 
discontinued.
