Re: Save/copy button doesn't seem to work. Am I screwed? SOLVED

Excellent suggestions!!! The bottom line: any piece of hardware or software that can send user defined sysex commands can use E-Mu remote control.

As for me, while I have software that can send user defined sysex commands, I don't have any hardware that will do that--unless I use e-loader to embed the commands into an e-mu sequencer pattern.

As I had been already thinking of making a custom midi controller with an arduino (including doing tests of midi i/o), setting up some buttons to do stuff via remote control sysex should be very doable.  I am thinking of things like a button that increase tempo by a set amount and one that decreases it by a set amount, single buttons programmed to execute multiple changes over a controllable amount of time, etc.

I guess that puts me in the "build it only if I want to" category. :) But, as noted, there are plenty of other hardware and software options.
