Xmix allows you to replace tracks from one pattern with tracks from another
pattern one at a time instead of switching entire patterns. so, for
instance, you can introduce the kick/snare combo from the next pattern while
the melodic elements of the current pattern keep going, then add more tracks
from the new pattern to slowly mix from pattern A to pattern B. once you try
it, you'll appreciate it being available.

E-Loader allows you to:

- update the OS
- load/save patterns and songs to and from the Command Station in standard
MIDI .mid file format.

and, well, that's pretty much it. never heard of it downloading the manual.
definitely no sample dumping. unfortunately it doesn't send/receive patch
dumps, which would've been nice.

also there's no Mac OS X version... :(
