Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

i haven't gotten any reply to previous posts, but i will continue 
trying.  i have mp7 (got it last week) and i use cubase and cakewalk 
for sysex backup.  it won't send data into these programs.  a midi 
light comes on (on the mp7) but nothing is sent.  i have the 
audity2000 synth and sysex works fine, so i know it's not my midi 
interface or programs that are the problem.  i'm stumped.  i have 
taken the machine back to the store, exchanged it, and the same 
problem exists with the new one.  i am looking for any suggestions on 
this matter.  cheers to anyone who replies

is there a way to have your programs retrieve the info, instead of dumping it 
all at once?  i dont own a command station yet, but with usb, you should be 
able to pop open a program, and get into your xl7 from the computer.  then you 
could probably back up everything you want.  do the command stations not take 
memory cards?  you could jsut back up to smf, and then load that onto your 
computer just for extra safe keeping

Is the MP7 connected bi-directionnaly to the computer, i.e. MIDI In 
AND Out? Does E-Loader works? 

Alternatively, you could monitor the datas sent and received with the
excellent MIDIOX tool (http://www.midiox.com), compare with the Audity
and see if something is wrong.

Hope this helps.

err i dont know if this is what you mean ...but if you are asking if 
midi messages are sent out of your xl and if midi can be recv by the  
xl then the answer is yes. I have not tried it with the new os. 

i will let you know how i did this on the old os
go to midi button 
dail to systex send page 
then press enter to send data 

e loader works...yes 
check you midi settings in the pattern edit ..
you can assingn each midi ch to int,ext,both or none 
some one correct me here if i am wrong but in order to see midi info
on e-loader you ahve to ahve a setting of ext or both   

peace

well, i do have it connected bidirectionally and E-Loader does work 
through USB, *but not through midi*.  i will try using MIDIOX tool to 
see what happens.  but hey, i connected the mp7 (midi out) to the 
audity (midi in) and sent sysex data= the result was that the midi 
LED on both machines lit up until data was completely sent.  so 
basically i am confused.  are there different types of midi cables?

Make sure Cubase and Cakewalk are set to not filter out sysex.  I know 
Cubase comes this way by default, if you tell me what version it is (VST 
or SX) I can tell you how to change this.
