The Yamaha AN1x Synthesizer mailing list

Does anyone know if you can transmit just a single AN200 program 
either by sysex dump or by the editing software/librarian?  I have a 
pretty good Oberheim patch that I wanted to post here but I've only 
been able to store banks of 128 sounds to my PC.

Thanks!

I do believe that the XG An200 Editor will allow you to save either 
a single patch or the whole bank but as an .an2 file.

You should also be able to do a patch dump to a midi sequencer and 
store as a .mid file.

I have been happy with the XG method though.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the replies guys!  When I save the single pattern as 
a .an2 file it contains 128 patterns, 127 of them blank yet still a 
308K file. I'm not sure how to use a soft sequencer to make a .mid 
file so I'll just post my user bank - The "OBFuzz" patch is # 117.

Unfortunately, the only application that will Open a .AN2 file is AN200 Editor - not AN 
Expert Editor and not AN1xEdit. The standard for this list has been .AN1, please try and 
upload your file in a format other users can share - I suggest you use AN1xEdit. You might 
try dumping the patch to your Sequencer application and saving it as a .MID, but be aware 
that the SysEx ID in the header will probably NOT be legible to AN1x and PLG150-AN 
users.
