What Command Station OS do you have? If its not 2.0, you might want to find someone with a PC, or perhaps pick up an old Windows 98SE machine that someone is getting rid of, so you can run e-loader 1.1 and upgrade your OS.

> Very good sugestions. I was normali use different patterns to make transitions. Well i observe on my Alesis micron that there are some keys define with general transitions. Probably some arps on drum sets. Well the ideea was to make something similar on xl7 and to have on some buttons, maybe the trigger ones, some general transitions. In this way i can simplify the all process,./:)

In this way, the pattern will go now from 1 to 16, not to 1 to 8, and then, the transition you recorded at bar 16, will make its job.
