Re: Program change message to load a sequence

2007-09-21 by Jamie Orlando

You didn't have to insult me in responding to this the way you did.  
I've used MIDI gear for years.  My whole set up is MIDI-ized.  I have 6 
pieces of gear that get their presets changed with one button from my 
foot controller.  I was assuming when I bought the XL-7 that I'd be 
able to send a program change command to load a song.  But this isn't 
the case.  Usually a work-around can be accomplished with some sysEx.

Seems simple enough.  Can someone else help me out???

The Proteus Midi chart sucks, and I'm having a hard time reading it.  
If this can't be done, I'm selling my XL-7.

Thanks,
Jamie
