Hej to everybody, reading for many years this lovely and useful place, but first time posting..
Maybe my question has already been solved at other threads here, but i didnt find any clear answer yet, at exactly what i want..(maybe i havent seen it yet, if does exist, pass me a link)

I am about to grab a 2.5 from an old friend of mine as he dont use it for a long time, so i grabbed the opportunity. I am an XL use since 2005.

My question: May i transfer my files (with the usual and fully explained in this forum way-latest OS at XL, no more than 8 characters file's names, save as .MID the SEQs etc) via CF Card (for example the San Disk 1 ultra) from my XL to the 2500?

Can the 2500 recogn the .SND files of XL?
I ll save all pgms n files and my SEQs at .MID type 1 and transfer them with the same card.. Will this work?

peace

Some parameters of PGM may be different and may not carry over (try anyway, it can't hurt). Pad assignments will def carry over. SND should be recognized. MID with the separated tracks should work fine.

If you have both machines try everything anyway.
