Re: Dropped notes = MOP (Maxed Out Polyphony)

Hi Guys..

>>> Yep, in the manual in the filters section. <<<

l'll give the filter section of the manual a read over, load of work 
happening at the mo....
Had to switch it off yesterday to leave.. never enough hours. (at the 
moment!)

>>>Doh! Sit down and read it then! :) The Sends are also covered in my
FAQ if you need an alternate view on them. <<<

I did read your FAQ, very imformative helped me understand things..
I got my head around it enough to get them to do what i wanted.
Ive been using the XL-7 in multimode with the global effects setting.
Im just used to be able to send an FX send amount from a patch 
individually in multimode on other synths.
looks to me that when you use global FX's you have to preset your 
amounts on the 8 sends and thats that.Just hard routing from the 
presets to the FX busses
Also having to leave one dry (0%)to get a clean signal out seems odd.
Maybe i missed something with that? as i couldnt adjust the sends in 
each preset when set to global that looks like how it is. 
Thats cool :o)

I have the open hats on a differant track to the closed. If i mute 
the closed hats track the open hats would still get shortened.
If i muted the offending track causing this problem the hats and kick 
clear up.

Tryed that as it goes, i moved the kick track (track 1) up to the top 
track 15 in the pattern. Still seemed to cut off..

I going to start again with the new knowledge of the unit, see how 
things work out. Might try a live thing over the weekend.. Just 1 
track with some friends, time permitting of coarse.

Cheers a
Gonz
