[A6] hello and patch question

[Richard]

thanks Karl: I have a follow up question

with PCMCIA card does it give me acess to several banks at one - like User1, User2, User3 etc> or does it just enable me to change the be one user bank very quickly?

Ideally I'd like to have a bank of pianos, a bank of pads, a bank of monosynths etc and be able to acess them all at once for a 16 part mix - is this actually possible with the card?

Richard

  Getting the PCMCIA card is a big help when saving patches but you can save over the top of the user presets if you want. Just press the store button and select where you want to save the patch to (whether to the PCMCIA card slots or over the user patches). I usually back up all my patches on my PC also just incase I accidentally reset my PCMCIA card or I lose my patches. Just download midi OX from alesis's site and bulk dump your patch via midi and record the bulk dumped information with midi OX. Just set midi OX to record sysex, press store on the A6, then soft button 5 for "sysex" page and store again to bulk dump. Then save the patch in midi OX. I usually record all my bulk dumped sysex data from my other synths in my sequencer, but for some reason cubase SX won't record bulk dumps from the A6.

  Hello all

   

  I am the happy new owner of an A6. I'm still figuring it all out and would like to know if there is a way to bakup and recall patches from different banks individually. For example I would like to keep about 6 of the user preset patches in a bank with patches of my own and maybe others from other banks too. How is this achieved? Do I need the PCMCIA card?
