The EZF4 automatically makes a folder with "sav" files for each program (one folder with all the savs in it). Maybe that's causing a problem. I'll experiment some more tomorrow. Not having any luck so far.
After some more research and some work travel with my psp as my only internet source I think I've decided to just keep it and not worry about midi. All the emulators I've used on it so far are pretty slick and wifi has proven to be a god send. If the Wiz gets a piggy version I may reconsider. Thanks for all the info, guys!
Ah yes, your second example is what I've been doing sort of. I guess I couldn't get my head around not putting the command at the beginning of the bend. My experimentation is in order!
Gotcha, so if you want to bend UP, trigger the L with a higher note.
C 5 ---
--- ---
--- ---
--- ---
A#5 L02
Bends UP to A#6.
C 5 ---
--- ---
--- ---
--- ---
B B L01
This should (in theory) be the exact opposite effect of using an L on an empty step.
Finally figured out that the bend starts at the second note position.
I'm planing on selling my PSP and some other stuff and getting a GP2X. I've been looking at the Wiz... has touchscreen which is nice. But it seems to be really small and I can't find any info on midi (I don't think it has any ports other than usb). Has midi just not been implemented yet?
thanks for the excellent info nitro, i was really considering the infinity cart... i probably would have bought 3, but perhaps ill wait and see. Also- the file manager is going to be a HUGE DEAL, and I can't wait until its out.
But keep in mind that it won't work on any EMS cartridges.
and it's even bi-polar supply! which means more headroom! WooT!
Yeah, I believe this or something very close is what I'm going for. I pulled apart one of the mp3 player amps that I had and decided that the parts and labor I would need to convert it weren't worth the hassle when these are available. Also, I can blame someone else when it jacks up my equipment lol
EDIT: This is the other option I'm considering. Has USB rechargeable battery and very good reviews. Might not have the juice I need tho.
I have the same issue with the L command, it never seems to bend notes how I want - I find it easier to use the P command and play with the vib. type if i want a nice Portamento effect.
L is one of my favorite commands.
One thing you have to note is that it bends the previous note to the new one.
A#6 ---
--- ---
--- ---
--- ---
C 6 L02
Bends the A# down to a C. But as aphasia noted, you're only going to get something usable with an 01 or 02 (experiment, naturally).
A cool effect is using an L with no note, this bends anything down to nil (or C 3, I'd assume).
A#6 ---
--- ---
--- ---
--- ---
--- L01
Or something like this, is a cool little sound.
