Patches and discussion for Ensoniq VFX family

I think it needs to be thrown back into the court of
the person sending the files. The problem is that
despite the common file extension *.mid, various soft
and hard sequencers encode the data in different ways.
Some take the pure sysex and insert its own bytes here
and there, and some make it totally unrecognizable,
not a F0 or F7 to be seen. Not that I'm cheap (GAH!)
but I don't want to buy eveybody's brand of soft seq
to have on my computer all at once, just to be able to
trade files. Sysex utilities can be had free (eg
MIDI-OX), they're reasonable to use and the result is
something all users (with sysex utilities) can access,
which was the idea, I thought. I run into this with
other groups of machine users, and I wish you'd all
consider my .02  . All done now. Breathe.

Thanks
