Re: problems with preset upload

2005-09-20 by eriksatie01

some more informations:
2) there are no parameters for controlling how sysex banks are sent
3) yes you can see the times at which sysex are sent
4) cannot printout it but I write down the first ones, the others
follow with the same time:

 SysEx   1.01.01.000
 SysEx   1.01.01.060  
 SysEx   1.01.02.070
 SysEx   1.01.03.080
 SysEx   1.01.04.090
 SysEx   1.02.01.100

or, in seconds:

 SysEx   00.00.00.000
 SysEx   00.00.00.063 
 SysEx   00.00.00.198
 SysEx   00.00.00.333
 SysEx   00.00.00.469
 SysEx   00.00.00.604

the time in second is true for bpm fixed to 120

5) the manual is a standard windows help file
