will give that a try...
that would be a lot of dumps if I have to go that way... I want to back it up before I destroy the contents with my own changes and or arrangements of items.

Will take you advice on the check it out before buy...

Do you know if there is any difference between the inf files of the dx 200 and an 200, my next steps are to add this into Sonar so I can use them in my tracks there?

What I am thinking is that I can edit the dx 200 inf file I have to make it into a an 200. Name changes, patch changes etc. but I don't know for sure. Though I ask before I start that edit.

I found that I can route the an 200 into the MMV or CS-80 as well. Been experimenting... ;-) Also noted the Extreme into an 200 and an 200 into it was interesting too.

I also have to install the DX 200 items as well. I am being a turtle on these things but I had other stuff consuming my time since I bought them.

Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that one.

You might want to try several times, first doing a send/recieve of
one voice, then two voices, four voices, and so forth to see if there
is an upper limit to how much USB bandwidth those hefty AN∗ bulks
dump eat up. Not all USB MIDI Interface/driver combos are up to the
tasks and require some 'massging' when dealing with the way oversized
AN SysEx...

Never used either, not the person to ask :-/ Perhaps somebody else
will chime in...I'd say stick with the Lite version for a couple
weeks to see if you actualy use it for more than just your AN/DX
editor/librarian needs then decide if the upgrade is worth your $80.
