Subject: Re: [DW8000] Re: uploading syx. files into my korg from my pc

From: greg montalbano <greg.montalbano@...>

OK, I'm at my office & don't have access to the synth, but here aresome things I can tell you:
1)  Tape should NOT be enabled -- we're using MIDI here.

Next, we have to verify that your computer & MIDIOX are correctlyconfigured & connected....

2)  Verify that your computer MIDI Out goes to the DW8000 MIDI In;and that the computer MIDI In connects to the DW8000 MIDI Out.
3)  In the MIDIOX program, go to the "OPTIONS  - MIDIDevices" window, and make sure your computer's MIDI In & Out areselected.
4)  Verify that your computer & dw are communicating, by playinga few notes on your dw keyboard -- the MIDI monitor screen on yourcomputer should show what you played.  Now, go to the"Actions" window & select "Keyboard" -- thisallows you to press keys on your computer keyboard and play notes on thedw.
--- if that works, then you are correctly connected &configured.

Now, go to "View SysEx", open the "Command" window,"Send" sysex file --
this works for me, and has worked for other folks as well.

If you're still having problems, let me know, & we'll explore itfurther.

If you have a sequencer program that handles sysex (Powertracks,
Cakewalk, etc), just load the files into the sequencer & sendthem to
your DW8000. 
Another way is to download MIDIOX, a free program fromwww.midiox.com-
-this is a first-rate MIDI toobox which includes a generic librarian
window which works just fine with the DW8000.
ANOTHER way is to go to
http://www.tosbbs2.com/FileLibraries/Patches/Patches.html
and download the free DW8000 editor/librarian -- don't know if this
will work for the files you downloaded, but it's worth atry.
