Re: Fat Leads/Extra patches

2007-01-08 by vermis_rex

Sorry, bit of a typo (or minor brain death)... I meant XK-6, not MK-6...

As it turns out, it's the V-Lead v2 ROM I have, and it's not entirely
the same as the XK-6 ROM.  While the presets and instruments are the
same,   my ROM seems to have different Riffs, and they're in a
different order.  Which was the cause of my problem with the XL-1
presets...

I couldn't get the BTS presets to work properly, until I checked the
preset "Audition Riff".  Most of the BTS presets from the XL-1 unique
set had the Riffs mapped to other non-BTS Riffs.  It was while sorting
that out that I discovered this ROM's Riffs list is different from the
other ones.  The presets were calling the Riff # from the XL-1 table,
but getting a different Riff on the XLv2 table.

Interestingly, the sticker on the ROM identifies it as XROM1 (the XK-6
ROM), but it comes up on the display as just XROM, and as mentioned
the RIFFs list is different.  The ROM ID=14.

I'll post the Riff-order list in the files section.  And when I finish
tweeking the presets, I'll post the versions translated for XLv2 ROM.
