Well, I've just about given up. I've tried the TAPE reloading as the
manual explains, and it's not hearing anything, no matter what the
source of the sound is -- I've used different volume levels,
different known-working cables -- no luck. SysEx loading of patches
doesn't work, either, but I've only tried using one DW8000 software
that looks like it was coded for Win 3.1.
I think the contacts might not be in such good shape. Any suggestions
on cleaning / replacing 'em? And anybody got any good DW8000 SysEx
software?
