Re: [xl7] Using the XL-7 with Protools (or any DAW)

2002-12-23 by erik_magrini@Baxter.com

My first approach would be to record the MIDI out of the XX-7 into the 
host DAW (Cubase SX, ProTools, etc) with the DAW providing the master MIDI 
clocking to the XX-7 and the DAW recording in multi-channel mode. 

>>>Two issues (at least in my case).  First, the Midi clock out of SX is 
crap for my use, too sloppy to be any good.  Second this method doesn't 
take into account the changing of effect types in the XX-7, which are 
critical to the song.  Good idea though. <<<

Since there is no easy way of to solo a single track in song mode then 
Iwould suggest an alternative - disabling the  actual XX-7 synthesizer 
channels associated with a track.  In EDIT-MIDI scroll until you get to 
the MIDI ENABLE submenu and simply find each of the channels you are using 
(01A-16B).  Turn those used one's off and turn back on the one (or ones) 
you need to record for each pass.

>>>Doh, virtual handshake for you! :) Excellent solution! <<<
