Sorry - Have removed most of this question as I found BM’s article “How to load a bank of 128 Voices” which answers most of my query. However, the part about using the XS Editor to load files as opposed to using a USB stick still stands - any ideas? .....Using the import function in the XS editor, I can see how to assemble all 3 new Sample Banks into 1 file. Should I not then be able to load this (or any X0A file) direct to the XS over mLAN and dispense with the USB stick? After all, I have imported the full new Sample Bank files into the Editor so you would think everything the XS needed would be there. Any clarity on this would be greatly appreciated. B |

No, the connection between the editor and Motif XS is MIDI. SO there are no samples transmitted ( you don’t want to even think about how long it would take to send 1 GB of samples over a MIDI sample dump). So you need to load the samples you want to use into the Motif XS and save them to a USB stick. If you are trying to make a combined file of the three banks (which we will be putting up on Monday anyway). Load the Xspanded Sample Bank 1 as an All file, then load the XSpanded Sample Bank 2 to USer Bank 2 by using tload Voice and instead of selecting a single number , at the end after 128 select All. This will load all the voices from the bank into User bank 2 as well as the samples needed. Then do the same thing with XSpanded Sample Bank 3 , but load these to USer Bank 3.
Or wait until tomorrow Also take a look at the post about Saving Voices and Performances as it has some more good information about how to combine Voices. |
