Looking for list of what Programs make up each Combi

Hi All,
I've found lists that list all the Combis by name in the Triton Extreme (TE) and also all the Programs available in the TE. My understanding is that each Combi is made of a combination of existing Programs - where can I find a list of what programs make up each combi?
Optionally, if I had the factory PCG file, how can I view its configuration (on a Mac)? Perhaps it lists the Program settings for each Combi?
What I'm looking for is something like this:
Combi XYZ is made of Program A123 + A456 + C234 + F789
I realize there are splits, layers, etc involved. If i had that info too that would be nice, but the different Program names are really what I'm after.
Thanks!

hamXor,
Not a direct solution, but LeLibby (Freeware/Shareware) is a librarian (by Austrian developer Klaus Cinibulk) that has an edit feature that will
show you the list of voices in any given combi.

Runs in Java, so it is cross platform compatible (win/mac). If you're clever with Java you might be able to generate a report.
Otherwise you'd have build a spreadsheet that would provide you with bank/number data and enter by hand.

Awesome! thanks! that java software worked perfectly! I nabbed the PCG files from Korg's site and was able to get everything I need:

That Korg page was last updated on '04. Anything more recent that will tell us what devices will actually work with the T-Rex? I have 2 thumb drives (compact flash) that it won't recognize, and can't back up my edits ...

razeontherock -
Yeah that (USB compatibility) page hasn't been updated to reflect 6 years progress in USB memory, but if you read between the lines you'll see that all the capacities of the USB drives are measured in MB -- not one GB drive on the list -- so this is a case where smaller is better.
I personally have used a fair number of usb drives without any being rejected. But the T-rex... ponders would probably be a fair word... anything too big; the system definitely takes it's time thinking about whether it wants to use 2 or 4 GB drives.
Look for smaller capacity drives. In the US I've seen 'em at 5-Below ($5 or less) and other bargain shops. When $10 gets you 4 GB, you know that MB drives are going for a buck or 2 - hell, I know businesses that give 'em away as advertising freebies.
Even a 128 MB will hold around 50 T-rex .PCG files (100 Triton Classic), which should be enough to get you through your daily/gig needs.

Google Docs!

I find that this is by far the best way to keep track of my user settings with my Korg Wavedrum. I skip through loads of different drum settings live, and it's vital for me to have a printed note of everything I've stored.
I don't have a spreadsheet program on my MacBook. There is a Mac program out there, called Numbers. I think it's pretty cheap.
I used Google Docs to build my list. That way, if I lose it I can grab it from anywhere that has an internet connection. Great if you're on the move.

There's also Open Office, which is free.

As written above, with my app you can read ANY triton file and generate all kind of lists. One of these list is a list that shows which combi is using which programs. You can filter it by banks etc and by name (text).
Output can be in CSV, Text or XML.
You even can make lists that shows which combis are using which programs (other way around).
Take a look of output examples in the link in my signature.
