Re: [xl7] Re: Just another cubase sx question :)

In both SX and VST, you need to go to the File menu, then select import 
and choose MIDI file.  Then go to where you saved the midi file from the 
XX-7 (via E-Loader, I may have forgotten to list that step last time, 
sorry), and select it.  I think in VST you can even drag it from the 
desktop onto your arrange page too, though this hasn't been implemented in 
SX yet.

As for reordering, sometimes after the midi file is imported, Cubase will 
order the tracks the wrong way, ie Track/Channel 1 is somwhere in the 
middle, Track/Channel 2 is at the bottom, etc.  Not neccesary to reorder 
them, I just personally find it easier to put the tracks in the same order 
they were in the XX-7.  Also, say you have an 8 bar pattern you're 
importing, sometimes Cubase will add an extra half measure or so to random 
tracks (and it's not note length causing it).  You might want to resize 
the part by grabbing it's right handle and dragging it to fit.  Again, not 
neccesary, but it keeps things clean.

If I'm being unclear on any of this, let me know and I'll try and clarify 
further.

How is this done? I've transferred some patterns from my mp7 to my 
pc, but I can't open them in cubase. What's the correct procedure?

And what do you mean by reordering the tracks?

Cheers
