Re: Editor for the Emu XL-7

2006-11-28 by gonzinigonz

Hi Daci
Best way is to edit the note / controller data in say cubase or the 
like and save out as a midifile (mode 1 format so midi channels stay 
separated)
Dont use over 16 tracks as well.
Use Eloader to transfer the midifile in the command station.
In the command station a pattern has a maxmium length of 32 bars so a 
midifile longer than this will be truncated.
A song has a much longer length so transfer a longer midifile into a 
song.
Cant remember what happens when you load a midifile as format 1 into a 
song. Think it gets converted back to a format 0, so all tracks get put 
into 1 track but with the note / controller midi channels still intact.
Have a search back through the older posts, there should be more info 
about this one.
