Re: sysex cheat-sheet for xl-7

2009-12-27 by steve_the_composer

I uploaded the RC OFF/ON/OFF embeded sysex file. I also uploaded a few RC demos (embeded sysex). If you try these, be sure to dial up the RC OFF sequence; otherwise, your RC will be left on.

Tip 1: You do not need to "play" the RC on and off patterns; just dialing them send out the sysex commands. 
Tip 2: with RC off at 127^7, its easy to find (just scroll the encoder hard right).
