Re: How can I convert W2B files to AN1 files?

2006-02-20 by meatballfulton

The problem with the PLG cards is that the movement of patch data is one way...you 
can move data from your computer to the board but not back again!!! So if you load 
the board voices with bulk dump files (.w2b format on Motif) you cannot further 
tweak the voices in any way. It was an unusual design decision by Yamaha to say the 
least.

For some reason Keyfax does not provide the .ans format files the editor needs when 
you order Regnerator. Not only can you not edit the individual patches you can't even 
rearrange the patches into different banks.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
