Patterns for general Midi Keyboard

John O Keeffe · Post by **John O Keeffe** » 11 May 2002 12:19 pm

I am just wondering is there any site than I could download general midi patterns so that I could load them as styles on my general midi keyboard.
Problem is there are only a couple of country beats on the keyboard and they get a bit repetitive after a while....JOHN

I'm sure that would depend on the keyboard. Most inexpensive models don't allow you to change the patterns, but some do. Check your manual.

If you are talking about just using the keyboard freestanding, Bob is right- you need to check your manual to see if it allows you to load MIDI sequences into an onboard sequencer.
If it won't, you can still use your keyboard to program, and play back, MIDI sequences which are stored on your computer. Since it's a GM machine, it will be OK.
If you want to know how to do it, I'll send you one of the handouts I give to my students.
Cheers
