Call Yamaha Customer Assistance and I'll wager they'll provide
the missing CDROM for a fee.

XGWorks is NOT free - this is commercial software from
Yamaha. The missing CD from your AN200 should include
plug-in's that XGWorks will accomodate to provide
editing/librarian functions for the AN200 and PLG150-AN
daughter cards. There is a demo version of XGWorks available
from Yamaha.

You will find stand alone editors for the PLG150 card at the
XGFactory website http://www.xgfactory.com/ on the downloads
page. Furthermore, the freeware editor/librarian AN1xEdit also
works with the PLG150-AN/AN200 units.
