Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Hi,
I'm having some difficulties using the XL-7 w/computer-based 
sequencers. I have the same problem on my MC-505, but I have 
successfully accomplished this with my CS6X synth.

I am trying to run Cubase SX with 16 midi channels running the XL-7. 
The problem is that all the data goes to one midi channel regardless 
of which midi channel it is assigned to. It seems like it is using 
midi type 1 which routes all midi data to 1 channel. So how would I 
get it into type 0? I have tried to change the midi settings within 
the XL-7, but nothing seems to be working the way it is suppose to.


Any suggestions?

Midi type 0 is all channels on a single track.
   Type 1 is 16 channel/multi-track support.

   So you need to export the MIDI file as type 1 to maintain tracks.

No, you were right for what I need to do. I export as a type 0 midi 
file for the cs6x, but for using the computers sequencer, I would 
want type 1. Either way I can find it in the midi menu. 

I am going to try to set the XL-7 and the MC-505 in song mode. 
Perhaps it will work this way. On the CS6X, it has to be in 
performance mode, so maybe on the grooveboxes w/built-in sequencers, 
it has to be in song mode to work with the computer's sequencer.
I'll post the results when I get back home tonight.

   On SX 2.0 (possibly 1.0) select "Export\MIDI file...",
   Set your filename,
   Then the Export Options appear, if you untick "Export as Type 0" and it 
should export Type 1.

         Mark.

If you're trying to play the XL-7 from Cubase, you'll need to turn
rechannelize off.

If you're trying to import MIDI files from Cubase into the XL-7, either
type 0 or type 1 should work fine.

For type 0, the tracks will be forced to their respective channels
(i.e. track 1 to channel 1, etc.)

For type 1, each track will retain whatever data is on it (i.e. if you
have channel 2 data on track 7, track7 will be forced to channel 2. 
likewise, if there's more than one channel's data on a track, it will
be forced to Multi A).

Thanks for the help. Turning off rechannelize did the trick.

I export as Type 0 in SX all the time and it saves the correct track 
assignments.

   Midi type 0 is all channels on a single track.
   Type 1 is 16 channel/multi-track support.

   So you need to export the MIDI file as type 1 to maintain tracks.
