Hi,

I had probs with my matrix 6 and transferring sysex patches until I upgraded it to 2.13

I didn't have any cassettes to load patches from, so here's what I did...

Download the wav files from this page:
http://www.overacker.com/oberheim.htm

Drag each wav into iTunes and name approprately

Sync them your iPod or iPhone or iPad

Connect the audio cable from your ipod/iphone/ipad whatever to your Matrix

Press "Load from Cassette" on your Matrix while pressing play on your ipod/iphone/ipad

Try to time these correctly or you may miss a patch or two.

If you have problems with errors, adjust the volume on your ipod/iphone/ipad to about 90%

good luck!

mark

And since I'm neither good nor patient at experimenting with so many numbered parameters (it's easier playing with a few knobs as in my P600), my Matrix 6 is essentially collecting dust.
