Subject: Re: How can I convert W2B files to AN1 files?

The problem with the PLG cards is that the movement of patch data is one way...you
can move data from your computer to the board but not back again!!! So if you load
the board voices with bulk dump files (.w2b format on Motif) you cannot further
tweak the voices in any way. It was an unusual design decision by Yamaha to say the
least.

For some reason Keyfax does not provide the .ans format files the editor needs when
you order Regnerator. Not only can you not edit the individual patches you can't even
rearrange the patches into different banks.
