Re: sequencing external midi expanders



thanks david, that seems to be the only way around the problem.
i finally learned how to dump the various sysex patch settings (midi
parts) back into the sequencer. the sysex messages seem to function even
better than msb & lsb messages with the roland jv-1010.

i tried putting all of the sysex in a short bar of a single 1/4 note and
this works fine.

thanks,
rob
