Last night I was working on a new track in my XL-7, and when I went to save, I got an error mesage along the lines of: SAVE FAILED: ERROR COMMENT 110 Then it went to: COMPACT USER DATA CONTINUE, Enter?? The only option I had was to hit Enter, no other buttons worked. it then spent about 10 minutes doing some sort of Compacting and was basically locked up until it was done. So, what the hell was that all about? rEalm

Screw that, it's totally a problem when you're deep into working on your
tune, and have to stop and wait 10 minutes for it to finish. I had the
coolest shit happening in my tune and then I had to wait forever to get
back to it. I was pissed :)

Yeah, I understand that. Can't stop the creative flow right? I don't know about the saved failed error as I have never gotten that one but the backup and compacting prompt happens often depending on how many presets are created and times saved during the process. --- In xl7@y..., erik_magrini@B... wrote: > Screw that, it's totally a problem when you're deep into working on your > tune, and have to stop and wait 10 minutes for it to finish.

Interesting. I save and move on very quickly, so I'm constantly saving my Presets and Patterns as I write. Strange that this is the first time I've seen this one though, oh well. rEalm ... but the backup and compacting prompt happens often depending on how many presets are created and times saved during the process.

It hasn't happened to me on the XL yet and I have been saving alot on that too. Later, M2 --- In xl7@y..., erik_magrini@B... wrote: > Interesting.

This defrag operation thing has happened to my XL three times since January, when I bought it. It seems to take less time now than it did at first. My memory is down to about 18% now. BTW, it seems from this that the memory will run out long before I can use up the user locations. I guess then you have to upload to the computer and clean out your patterns/presets? emufreak1 <mmcquay@...> wrote: It hasn't happened to me on the XL yet and I have been saving alot on that too.

I don't think I need to upload yet, I'm only using 71% of my memory.
That's about 200+ user Presets, two songs, and about 30 pattern right now.
What do you have stored on your XX-7 that takes up so much memory, a lot
of complete songs?

I've got about 75 presets, 100 patterns, no songs. Plus the patterns that came with the unit. And only 18% memory. I guess I could erase the factory patterns, but would that free up usable space?

>I guess I could erase the factory patterns, but would that free up >usable space? Yep, definitely. Cos bank 0 is just like the others. It also means you can start up the xl7 and begin in one of your patterns, or a blank one, which you put in 000o. From memory it frees up heaps 'o' space too. cheers g

Might! The first thing I did when I got my XL-7 home was delete all the factory Patterns, so I don't even remember what my memory was like (no pun intended) before that. rEalm I've got about 75 presets, 100 patterns, no songs. Plus the patterns that came with the unit. And only 18% memory. I guess I could erase the factory patterns, but would that free up usable space?
