Yet another Alesis question . . .

Recommended Posts

I was digging through the manual, and it wasn't entirely clear . . . that's why I came here (potential song lyrics?).

 

I am interested in consolidating my favorite patches on my QS.8 to one range in the User Bank. Do I just dial up the patch and then copy it to the patch assignment I want it on? How do you guys usually do it, and what range in the User Bank do you use?

 

Danke.

I don't copy any stock programs anywhere on my QS. I mod them til they sound good to me. Then I rename them, and copy them to whatever preset I think I'll never care about losing - mostly the drum preset programs & mixes have been overwritten.

I used to think I was Libertarian. Until I saw their platform; now I know I'm no more Libertarian than I am RepubliCrat or neoCON or Liberal or Socialist.

 

This ain't no track meet; this is football.

Okay...

 

1. Sure, you can do a direct copy from a preset program bank to the user bank, easy.

 

2. If you are setting up a user bank with "most used" sounds, a couple of suggestions would be:

 

a. Order them sequentially in order of use. If you use three different piano programs more than anything else, they could be #1, 2 and 3 respectively. In any case, it's probably a good idea to keep similar programs together.

 

b. Order them in a similar way to the preset architecture, in that 00-09 would be all pianos, 10-19 chromatic and so on.

 

This all depends on what you're doing, i.e., getting quicker accessibility to sounds for live program switching, or just keeping track of programs easier.
