SP-FORUMS

I just want to be able to record my patterns into the computer and then arrange and mix them in Ableton. I'd prefer a DAW to the sequencer on the 505. How would I go about recording straight to the card? If I could just drag those recordings into Ableton after that would be perfect.

my current MIDI settings are

Pads Ch=16
Part 1 Ch=Off
Part 2 Ch=Off
Part 3 Ch=Off
Part 4 Ch=off
Prog Chg SW=On ...
