Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Yes, you can too use E-Loader to download entire banks, and I found some 
pretty cool features regarding this (and any multiple file/pattern 
downloads) last night while preparing for a live set this weekend.  To 
upload or download a bank of patterns, just select all of the patterns 
(CTRL+A) and then select the file folder where you want to upload them.

Now for the fun stuff!  Say you've got a lot of patterns that you want to 
download to a bank, but you don't want to use the same bank that you 
uploaded them from.  First, select all of the patterns you want and put 
them in your download list.  Now, select them all if they aren't already, 
and hit "CTRL+I".  this will open up a new window allowing you to change 
the data type (pattern, song), bank number, and pattern number.  The cool 
thing, is that if you've got multiple files you want to downlaod, you can 
specify where you want them to start loading at (ie what Pattern Number), 
and they will download sequentially from that point! 

Example:  I had a bunch of Patterns (actually 12 all together) from 
various Banks that I wanted to assemble into one bank, to make them easier 
to find live.  So I selected all the saved Pattern files from my hard 
drive, and added them to my Download list.  From here, I arranged them in 
the order I wanted, then pressed CTRL+I.  This opened up a new window, 
where I could specify the new bank number, as well as specify that I 
wanted to download all of the Patterns starting at P:001.  Hit enter and 
confirm, and they all downloaded.  Now, all of my patterns for the live 
set were in the same Bank, and number sequenctially from Pattern 001, 
regardless of what Patten number they were saved as.  Huge improvement 
over E-Loader 1.0 for this reason!  Great job Scott!

Hi everybody.

Does anybody notice that with
E_LOADER 1.1
We can't upload/download an entire bank ?
Does anybody worry about it?
OK. Some will say that I can upload a bank through SYSEX.
But it is "pretty" long to do this so.

QUESTION :

HOW CAN I SELECT THE XL-7 BANK NUMBER THAT WILL FIT THE DOWNLOADED FILE.

e.g. there are some bank files @ emu.com. But bank numbers are default
(0,1,2 and 3) I want to push them to 4,5,6 and 7.
