No immediate plans. Actually, I am not 100% sure whether what it did was actually useful ;-)

It's not a sysex editor per se but I've successfully used HexEdit for this:

Kind regards.

thanks, that worked out. I do not really understand it, but it seems to work.

trying to send some patches to Sound Diver and the B-number has always to be 0 - but that also means that they might end up in RAM 2 ....

but - it works :)

thanks again...

Hello, this is my first post. Not sure if this is the correct thread, but it deals with .syx, so I thought I'd just drop a line.

I have many WS libraries in SoundDiver (from the olden days...) and would like to know how I can get them into Legacy WS (haven't purchased it yet). SD cannot, to my knowledge, export SYX (correct me if I'm wrong plz).

Do I need a hardware WS for a conversion via Sysex dump?

What about this program:

Many questions... many thanks in advance!

If your editor/librarian can't export sysex, then the only way you can do this is to beg, borrow, or steal a hardware Wavestation. You then send it your SoundDiver banks one at a time. Each time you do this you can then get the synth to send sysex to SysEx Librarian on your Mac (saving and naming each file, of course).

EDIT: However, there is still one slim hope if you can't get a real WS. If SoundDiver can export its banks as MIDI files (with extension .mid), then SysEx Librarian will be able to read them and export them as sysex files.

Kind regards

Maybe ... if you're using a Mac setup an IAC channel and send the sysex out of SoundDiver via that IAC channel to an app like sysex librarian and have it record it and dump it to file 8)

Thanks, that was good advice. As far as IAC-dumping and saving the file, it worked. Actually a bit easier than stealing a hardware WS ;)

If I sent you one file I created that way, would you mind testing it for me? Haven't got KLC yet...

Problem

Hello Daz, thanks for you little program WS Rebank 1.0 but I have a problem. I buy a Wavestation in 1990 , years later it extends to EX plus card RAM MCR-03. I sold the EX and the cards in 2004 but the last year buy a SR in ebay.

My problem is: the data saved in format System Exclusive (ALL and RAM1, RAM2 and CARD patchs, performs and WavSeqs).

Banks 1 and 2 no problems on SR. All Ok.
But like step the data of the CARD to RAM3 of SR without card?
As I can send those data SysEx format to RAM3?

Convert sysex bank RAM CARD to RAM3 (or RAM1 or RAM2), it's no possible?

Many thanks and sorry by my bad english, I'm a spanish boy, I live in Spain.

Nice day
