non-multitimbral modes (was Re: Frozen midi settings fixed)

2010-05-23 by steve_the_composer

My midi wiring is all apart because I had to repair my midi interface. Otherwise, I'd boot my XL-1 to reconstruct what it is that I was doing in non-multitimbral mode.

What I meant by editing was changing preset parameters on the fly and triggering notes with the "new" [edited] preset while the previously sounding presets on that particular channel continued to sound as "old" presets. Once I get midi hooked up, I can try to explain this better.
