Anybody knows if i can change the patterns at Korg ER1 with my XX7?
Thanx
midinovela@...

Yep and its been gone over here, basic thing is to set the midi to 
ext for the er1 channel, then insert a program event at the first 
tick in the pattern, make sure the m=0 and l=32 and also make the 
program change number 1 number less than you really want.
Sorry this is short I am beat you can get better answers by searching 
on program change in the forum.

Thanx,
i just checked it and program change seems to work, but
the electribe is not changing the patterns directly, it changes after 
completing the current pattern, so it seems to be necesary to send the 
program change information befor the change occurs [sorry im not a native 
speaker], but this way i cant loop this pattern with the program change 
information.
So what can i do? create a once played pattern including this program change 
information?
Any other suggestions?

The best way is to wipe the patterns on the ER1 and use a pattern in 
the XL7. I quote here from someone on this group WAY smarter than I 
am - whose name I lost! sorry! - who turned me onto this:
"
Actually Dana I have to step in and tell you that you're 100% wrong. 
I am an ER-1 owner so listen up ;).
Set sync to external on the ER-1 and set the midi channel of your 
choice.
Configure the appropriate track on the XX-7 to external only same 
midi channel.
Press the Midi button (last function button in ER-1) and scroll down 
to filter . Make sure you turn all filtering off so the display 
blinks like this " - - - " . This disable Program changes etc etc . <-
 I didn't do this part.
Now program a set of percussion sounds (small kit in the ER-1)
DO NOT STEP PROGRAM ANYTHING ON THE ER-1 !!!!!!!
Set the XX-7 into grid mode and assign the pads on the ER-1 to 
corresponding Midi note numbers of keys with an octave keyspan. The 
ER-1 can be programmed in realtime ,step and grid modes via the XX-7 
with full velocity control ,all the swing, scale and clock offset 
options of the sequencer in the XX-7 apply.
The ER-1 sequencer will light up the > (play button). However it's 
tempo will be locked to the XX-7 and all note data will be received 
from the XX-7 as nothing is stored on the corresponding ER-1 pattern 
other than tempo sync delay and the sounds themselves. 
You can set the ER-1 to respond under midi filter to Program Change 
messages and have a swag of programmed kits without any pattern data 
stored in the ER-1 for recall and full dynamic sequencing on the XX-
7. Lastly - the only limitation you will have is Motion sequencing. 
The XX-7's do no recognize NRPN's and therefore realtime knob tweeks 
cannot be recorded into the XX-7's sequencer.
However if you hit record and play on the ER-1 empty pattern and 
tweek the knobs then store. The Motion sequencers will be store in 
the pattern and the XX-7 can do all the other work for you with all 
those time signature features you want.
Trust ME it DOES WORK !!!!!!!!!"
And yeah it does work.
