Red face ROLAND AX-7 MIDI Controller

Hi everyone,

I just bought a ROLAND AX-7 and am having some trouble keeping the patches I want in the memory. I am following the instructions as per page 17 in the instruction manual but the only thing I can save in the memory is the octave setting and the transpose setting. It won't remember the patch setting. It will always go back to the GM Prog#1 setting. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Ben

Thats probably by design. My advice would be just to copy the the synth patch you want to use as #1 on the controller to the #1 location on the synth

That would be in my GM section of the keyboard. I can over-write these patches?

I don't know what you mean, I guess it's a ROM Patch.

ROM means 'Read Only Memory' and RAM means 'Random Access Memory' - ROM is not rewritable and RAM is rewriteable.

There used to be a good reason for differentiation between the two types of memory - ROM was cheaper than RAM.

Have you checked the backup battery in your keyboard? If you're having trouble storing patches it may well be the five year battery. Open the 'board up and it'll be a round battery that you can just - hopefully - pop out of the holder and take to your local Radio Shack for replacement. If it's a soldered battery and you've never dealt with soldering anything you may want to get some help - like from a repair shop.

Red face Figured it out

I'm so new to MIDI now I feel kinda stupid... It appears that I wasn't entering the (MSB and LSB Bank addresses) then entering the patch. Works great now
