<t>I have both of those documents and have read throught them...but neither has a simple list of what I need....or maybe the midi doc does....but I think I need someone to point out which page and section I use. Someone who's done this before. <br/> On page 9 of the D-50MD2 document there's midi tra...

<t>I have a D-50 but not a PG-1000 programmer and I'd like to be able to instead program it with my Novation Remote SL midi controller. Now from what I understand about the PG-1000 is that it used sysex to control each parameter in the D-50...and the Remote also uses sysex. It has a software templat...

<t>Well, it definately can because I've got it working. But it's switching from internal patch 85 to patch 34 on the card...and I want it to change to patch 84 in the internal bank. Only the Card patch list is showing up in Pro Tools and not the internal bank. There must be a way to do progrm change...

<t>Can the D-50 use program change messages from a program like Pro Tools to change a patch during a session? I tried it and I'm getting a "Card not ready" message in the D-50 display when it hits the program change message. The thing is that I'm not using what's on the card...I'm using internal pat...

So with the D-50, are the PCM samples that came with the factory sounds the only ones that can be used or are there other ones that can be added and if so where can I get them?

Anyone know where I can download the Norsez MC-505 PC editor or similar? I heard it could be used with the D2 and would like to try an editor with it.

<t>Thanks for the info so far! Do you mean a midi splitter cable or a midi merge? A midi merge sometimes has 2in/2outs or 4in/1out at least from what I've seen so far. There's one that midiman used to make though I'm not yet sure that this is what I would need to do this. I'm not sure if one midi in...

<r>Well you might be amoung a select few who actually like the effects of the D-50. Some owners actually turn these effects off and use outboard effects instead as they're a bit gloppy. I use the reverb and Chorus and they're OK but not great. I don't know what these effects are based on as far as R...

Before I get one of these PG-1000s it would be great to know if this can be done....anyone?

<r>Kenny,<br/> What you can do is, if you have a PC, use this editor;<URL url="http://users.encounters.be/D50VE/feat.html">http://users.encounters.be/D50VE/feat.html</URL> as a librarian of sorts. Unfortunately it won't load banks via sysex...only individual patches so it'll take you a bit of time. ...

Umm...Robbie....are you asking me to email you so you can send me some banks?

Kenny,....email sent. Thanks!

<t>Getting back to this post after a long, long time. I actually have some of those Valhalla patches loaded in the D-50. The person who sold it to me had those Valhalla cards but he wouldn't sell them to me....but some of the patches have the Valhalla name on them.<br/> Hey Robbie....how can I mail ...

Was it really the Synclavier? Where does your information come from? Seems he would've used a more up to date instrument.....but, maybe he did. Any info you could post would be great.

Looks good! So is the cleaning done and everything and what's the status on the aftertouch?
