I wrote an 01/W profile for Dr.T's X-oR and Mark of the Unicorn's Unisyn editors, , and found that the biggest problem with the Sysex was the size of the dumps. Depending on how much sequence data you have in memory, a full sysex dump can run from 70K to over 100K bytes. It won't take much of a timing glitch to screw that dump up. There are sysex commands to break up the dump into smaller segments (such as just Programs, or just Combis). You might have better success this way if you're overflowing your buffers with a full dump. And of course, you need sysex enabled on the 01/W and the sysex message header corresponding to the master MIDI channel on your 01/W. Good luck! ********************************************************************* *Jonathan Whitcomb, Alcatel Network Systems, Raleigh, North Carolina* * UUCP: whitcomb%aurfs1.aur.alcatel.com@rockdal.aud.alcatel.com * * GEnie: J.WHITCOMB3 * *********************************************************************
