The CS6x can save two kinds of PLG150AN patch files - it can save the actual
contents of the PLG150AN User Bank 036/002 as a "Board Voice" file (.s2b),
and it can save the offset parameters that you talk about above - it won't
save these separately as a file, but is saves them as part of an "ALL" file
(.s2a), which is the entire contents of memory. However, the "ALL" files
don't contain the Board Voice data.

I am surprised if the .s2b files actually contain the user banks of the PLG.
Yamaha have always told me that the host could not request this info from
the card! It may be that some other mechanism is at play here (such as
Yamaha introducing a new mechanism on the hosts to access this data, or
perhaps they cache it before it gets sent to the PLG). It certainly isn't
possible with any of the standard XG host devices.

Using the XGWorks AN Expert editor, which seems to have patches that exactly
match what's in the PLG150AN ROM, I think I may be able to create some .ANP
files which exactly match the PLG150AN's Preset1, Preset2, and default User
banks. If I get that done, I'll make them available to you if you like.

It may be that Yamaha updated the files supplied with the XGworks AN editor
for the final release (I generally get to work on Beta stuff). In which
case, go ahead and convert them to ANP. As I said, I am not particularly
interested in these files (the majority are voices from earlier collections
of AN1x libraries). However if you want to make them available to others,
simply upload them to the user group file library.
