JUST GOT A 2500 LAST WEEK, IF I SAVE MY PROGRAMS AND SEQUENCES TO A FILE, WHEN I WANT TO WORK ON MY SONG I CANT UPDATE MY FILE.
EVEN IF I SAVE WORK ON PROGRAMS AND SEQUENCES WITHIN THAT FILE THE FILE DOESNT GET UPDATED! I WANNA BE ABLE TO SAVE AND LOAD TO/FROM THE SAME PLACE TO AVOID CONFUSION ESPECIALLY WHEN WORKING ON MORE THAN 1 SONG AT A TIME. IF ANYONE CAN EXPLAIN THE BEST WAY TO SAVE I'D BE A LOT HAPPIER! THANKS.

When you save your .pgm/.aps and .mid/.all files onto a disk with the same name as the old file it should recognize the old one and ask if you want to REPLAC it

First create a folder on the drive
Then make your beat
purge what you dont want
Save entire memory to the folder
Then you wont get all the errors that others get likealong with losing beats.

If you do it any other way I garuntee you will eventually lose your creation.

Trust or dont or do a search. I wish you well. :wink:
