Re: [xl7] Multi tracks

Re: [xl7] Multi tracks

There's two things that I could see you doing here:

1. You want to record multiple channels on a track, one at a time.
2. You want to record multiple channels on a track, all at once (i.e.
from a external sequencer or something).

For both, you'll need to set the track to MultiA or B.

For #1, it couldn't be easier.  Simply go to the track you want to
record and then pick the channel you want to record.  As long as you
don't set the channel out of the range for that multitrack (i.e. pick
channel 01B on a MultiA track), you can change channels without even
stopping record to record each additional channel, all without ever
having to change the channel on your external keyboard.

For #2, you will have to turn Rechannelize off while recording, as this
performs the above processing on all incoming data (resulting in
everything squished to the basic channel).

ahhhh this makes total sence.  Thanks both of you for the help got 
it working.

Now I have another question that kinda makes me go Hmmmmmmm......why 
the heck is there not 64th in the quantize options?!  I have been 
playing drums for 15 yrars and trust me 64ths are totaly valid.

If there was sompthing that I would want to see in a future os this 
would be it.

Thanks and sompthing for ya emu guys to think about.

64ths?  Man that's so old skool!  I want 128ths, bring on the stutter 
breaks!  Honestly though, you can't quantize at 64ths, but with the Repeat 
function in step mode, you can at least program them.
