Writing "selected" Expansion Tones into User Tone Banks

Imagine, that the EXPs are Hardware-ROMs. When you remove them, the sounds on it are not more available. When you store an EXP-Sound into a User-Memory-Place and after that you remove the EXP, you will hear - nothing! The parameters in the User-Memory are only links to the EXP - same as a hardware-ROM!

Candy said it all!

The only thing you can do is to manage loading the EXPs into the Slots and then changing to the corresponding StudioSet having those EXPs (or the other way around), via a keyboard/Controller. Just need to program the controller to send the corresponding SysEx messages. Two button presses and you are up and running.

Thanks for the info some time back (PauloF and Candy).

It has taken me months to master this module and all its control options, but I am finally very happy with what it offers.

Recently however I have hit a very disturbing (seemingly random) problem with the unit.

Every now and then (seems random) the unit applies "flam" to snare and other sounds in all its drumkits! ... and clearly this completely destroys my drum track! I can find no explanation of cause of this.
The only way to rectify this is to reboot the module(not a viable option!)

Has anyone else experienced this problem? Anybody able to help?

Thx
Huntly

Anyone experienced this??
It happens when it is playing a midi sequence

I am not 100% certain, but I think its the modwheel being activated. Since a lot of Drums have some articulations, using the modwheel will add flam to some sounds in drumkits. try turning the modulation to zero.

I think you can select a new card for each of the 4 slots via sysex.

All you'd need to do is send the 4 sysex strings to the module.

In theory...

You can load expansion cards with sysex (as well as ask which cards are currently loaded), but I'm not sure if that was the actual question.

If you edit a tone that belongs to an expansion card and save it as a new user preset, you can still only use it if the expansion card on which the original tone was located is currently loaded. What you store in a user preset is basically only the settings for filters and envelopes and lfos and fx, but the underlying basic waveforms themselves are not copied/duplicated into the user presets (just a reference to the waveform that lives on the expansion card).

Ahh... correct weight mate; thank you.

I imagined his trying to set things up in a DAW-project situation. My bad.
