I am somewhat new to the DR-5 Edit. I am trying to upload a Song/Pattern from DR5 Edit to the DR-5 unit. I imported a midi file successfully to the DR5 Edit...
Hi, The communications between the PC and the DR-5 is handled entirely by the Windows Multimedia System (MMSYSTEM) and is not the controlled by Dr5Edit as you...
Paul: You were right, the problem was in the Windows Multimedia System. I opened Multimedia in the Control Panel. Under the MIDI tab, it was set to Midi...
Hi, My first time posting here. By the way, I had no idea that there would be a program like this. I was SO glad to find it. However...I'm unable to download...
I want to change the pre-set patterns and songs in my DR5 to "keys" that I'm familiar with. Is there a way to take the existing key and change it to Am or E...
Hi Rich, Unfortunately not all MIDI interfaces are up to spec. A small number of them do not handle SysEx block transfers correctly. Short MIDI messages like...
Hi Tim, If you are using the pattern in a song then this is fairly straightforward. Simply prefix the pattern you wish to hear in a different key with a ...
I have the DR-5 and I am thinking about purchasing the MDF3 to allow me to save ALL my songs, for live playing (or practicing with the "band"). Before taking...
Dave, The MDF3 (and its earlier version MDF2) can do all those things. I recommend saving your songs as complete SysEx dumps to the MDF3. Then, each time you...
Dave, I have the DR-5 and MDF3 and absolutely love it!!! We have a mailing list for the MDF3 as well at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mdf3 Let me know if you...

I have just purchased a used DR-5, but havent received it yet. I know that there is not an original power supply included. The original Boss PSA is very...
Dude...the original isn't that costly. Buy the original. I had an ME-30 guitar processor once. Didn't use the OEM power supply. It buzzzzzzzzzzzed everytime I...
Thomas, The PSA-120T input is 120V 60 Hz 9W, output is 9.6v 200 MA. The plug is center negative. If you're in the States, they're only $20 (plus shipping) at...
Yes you can. I believe there is a common problem with power supplies on the DR-5, at least I have seen 2 DR-5s suffer from bad connections where the power...
Hi I've only owned the DR 5 for a day now and am getting on ok. I've produced a couple of patterns and a couple of songs with drums only. I find that the...
David, Song tempos are set in the song mode. Press Shift-Song. Press the Right-arrow button (by the value dial) twice. I.Tmp should appear. Turn the value dial...
I had an old DR-220 (Dr Rythym) which was fairly easy to program and this DR-5 has just been a nightmare. Is there software out there that presents the...
I want to create a song of the drum sequence only using Jazz11 (ptn156) but using kit "Brush" instead of "Jazz" I've copied Jazz11 to a new location (215) but...
I felt the same way, man. It just takes time and patience. And actually...once you learn it and the thought process becomes more recognizable, it gets a whole...
I just recently joined. When are some upcoming chats going to occur? Also, I intend to use my DR5 as a rhythm section for some solo work. I've been using...
The solution to my question about fixing the kit is sitting there on pages 3-6 and 3-7 ( It's even in bold) Press [KIT]-Rotate knob-press [KIT] I think I'm...
David, After a while, all the print seems to run together. Drink enough caffeine while attempting to decipher this lovely yet complex device, and the letters...

I am tring to put in a drumbeat to a pattern, if I start on the longer flashing light it often misses out that note and puts it at the end of the bar and not...
