Re: New Member Question about e-loader

2011-04-16 by steve_the_composer

Glad to hear that worked. If you have downloaded the factory patterns and songs for the MP-7, they should work with the MP-7 ROM without any tweaking. If you download factory patterns and songs for a ROM you don't have installed, they won't play. Each track has pointers to the correct presets (bank MSB/LSB and program change number).

I assume you have the MP-7 ROM installed. Were you able to successfully load the MP-7 factory songs and patterns in? and if so, do those play correctly?

BTW, I assume you have e-loader 1.1. Also, I assume you have full midi duplex and that e-loader shows your device correctly in the midi settings--especially since you were able to upgrade to OS2.0.

I will have to take a look at the midi monitor window another time. I know there's a filter that let's you choose which data it displays, but I haven't used it recently. What data do you want to see?
