Proteus 2000 BTS?

Proteus 2000 BTS?

2008-07-29 by fretsmax

Hi All,

I just installed a proteus 2000 in my xl-7
and I'm loving it.

One thing about BTS (beats?)
How can I get them to convert to standard patterns?
Or do I have to midi up my computer and record the beats to my computer 
then back record to my XL7

Thanks

Glad to hear you are enjoying your XL-7 + Composer ROM. 

You are right. To convert riffs (including bts riffs), transmit them 
to your sequencer via midi out to midi in and record. Or, you could 
play them into a software sequencer, save them as midi files, and 
send them to the XL-7 via e-loader. 

A few years ago, I did the midi out to midi in hookup and saved a 
few riffs from the P2500. I am not sure I have them any more.  But 
it might be a good project if others are interested to make a bank 
of riffs as smfs. Anyone from Command Nation want to organize this? 
If so, I will look for the ones I converted to contribute.
