Hola

could you tell me if the XL7 has the SUPERBEATS section
like the XL1....

I have the XL1 and am thinking of swapping it for the 7, 
but the Superbeats is my favourite feature..

thanks in advance. J

No, with the inclusion of the sequencer on the **-7's, SuperBEAT's 
was not needed.  Instead they use a pattern mode with the trigger 
buttons.  If you look at the Bank presets of the **-7 manuals, you 
will notice that the BEATs that are in your XL-1 are all kits on the 
7's.

Hi all,

This has come up before, but I was unable to find a satisfactory 
answer from searching the archives.  

Is it possible to access the Superbeats mode on the XL-7?  I 
have the new Beat Garden ROM which has a ton of BTS patches 
on it, and I'd like to access these.  I know the Superbeats mode 
is less of a necessity with the XL-7's built-in sequencer, but Rob 
Papen whent to a lot of trouble to come up with all the patterns in 
the beats presets, and I'd like to access these.

How do I do it?  Thanks.

John

John,

After installing the ROM, did the BEAT's parameters become available 
such as key transpose, latch configuration, key velocity and so on?  
I know that on my XL-1 the ARPS/BEATS button which is in the same 
location as the COMPARE button on your unit gets me access to those 
parameters but on my P2K(ORBIT 3), the MULTI button(same location as 
the COMPARE button on yours)accesses those parameters.  Since the 
units I have demo'ed only had the standard ROM's, I was unable to see 
if the screens were the same.

I use a Launch Pad to trigger percussion from the BEATs presets(same 
as the 13 trigger pads on the **-7's so without the sequencer, I 
basically have **-7's since I have the Pure Phatt ROM installed in 
the Xl-1)

The way I had to set the BEATs parameters in my setup was to set the 
key transpose to +12 because being at 0 with the 13 pad setup on my 
Launch Pad would be below where the notes started.  Also make sure 
you latch on the parts needed.  1-16, Groups 1-4 and your start, stop 
and mute keys as well(as long as you can find the screens first).

Hope this helps.
