Re: [xl7] Re: How to save your presets banks in your command station as a sysex file????

2007-04-07 by Aaron Eppolito

If you're just trying to sync them up, you don't need to use the
sequencer at all.  Simply connect one to the other and send sysex for
the banks.  The target command station will replace its user presets
with the ones you're sending.
