Re: [xl7] Re: New Member Question about e-loader

2011-04-18 by Kings Queensofshowbiz

When I fixed the pcb board awhile back, I noticed it had a proteus 2500 rom 
installed.  I don't know if this came with the MP-7 CS or someone installed it 
because the CS is second hand, and did not work at all when I bought it.  What I 
was trying to download is preset banks ( Mo'Phatt preset banks) from Emu 
support, the MpToMp7 preset banks 0-3.  The factory pattern and songs download I 
already have in the CS and did not need to reinstall them. 

So, I don't have the Mo' Phatt rom installed thats why the presets will not 
play? How many different ROM's can be installed in the CS?  The Mp-7 should 
automatically come with a Mp-7 ROM installed?

On the Midi Tracker (pg. 15) E-Loader Operation Manual, The Bank Select MSB, LSB 
(program change # MSB.LSB.PC) will not display.

I have the Midi connection using M audio (midisport uno) that displays in 
eloader and (emu USB midi device #0) display in midi setup. The upgrade to 2.0 
is fine and I assume I am using E-Loader 1.1 because I downloaded it from Emu 
support.

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?
