Re: [xl7] XL-7 import/export sequences bugs

2001-10-02 by Jonathan El-Bizri

So far, I've had better luck with with SMFs created in logic than one's created in the xx-7 and massaged in logic and then returned, which unfortunately is what I usually want to do - bounce it back and forth as I build the arrangement.
 
I'll do what I can to document what I'm experiencing, as I continue developing my production process during composition and rehearsals.

I'm using Digital Performer. I've had great luck loading Standard MIDI
Files into the Xl-7 created from Performer.  You are saving them as Type
1 Standard MIDI files from Logic? Anybody else out there using logic?
What have been your experiences downloading SMF's?
