Hi,

I have been using E-loader for years now. You should check the MIDI device setup and make sure the MIDI in and MIDI out are identified correctly. Check that the USB interface for the MP7, XL7, PX7, 2500 is being picked up properly as a USB device. In the E-Loader, then scan for devices, you should see the MP7 or one of the other devices noted. If you see the device identified in the scan function, you should be able to get to the Bank Browser or Sequence Browser.

I use all but 2-3 % of my memory in the 2500. I do notice when it gets lower than that, there can be problems. I have all the MP7, XL7, and 2500 patterns as well as MIDI songs that I uploaded from E-Loader.

Has anyone got E-loader to work? Is this a common problem? Could it be the operating system or midi interface? Are there older version of e-loader that might work? This is really freakin frustrating.

I have an idea,
I just got ableton live 7. I was think maybe I could set all the the mp-7 midi channels to send external, arm 16 midi channels (or how ever many needed) in ableton and record all the midi tracks at once, so at least I'd still have them in some form. But yeah, that could still be pretty time consuming.

I'm starting to get into the 38% range in memory left. My mp is acting funny now too, like some external tracks cut out randomly, song mode acts really sketchy when writing songs.
Will i continue to experience problems the more memory I use? Or is it just in my head? (I could still be a little scarred from a MC-307 a few years back)
