I have attached my MIDI cables to a POD V2 and the other end to the joystick port of my computer - 'no device found'. I've checked the line-up, but still no joy. Any ideas.

Anyone know if somewhere there is an adaptation for Yamaha Motif ES ? Thanks in advance.

Maybe they'll realize us PC users are worth keeping around someday, and start supporting us again... At 01:34 AM 09/17/04 -0500, you wrote: > > > > On 16/9/04 5:44 pm, "Karsten J.

Thank you but i am looking for a SDiver adaptation, seems no module from Yamaha and also from Emagic-Apple. Anyway really thank you.

Thanks for replying to my message. I am using a PC. I have not checked if there is a midi driver present. How do I do this and if I need one what do I use and where do I get it from? Also I have just purchased a Yamaha UX 16 USB to Midi interface, delivery should be within the next few days. I'm hoping that this will make a difference. Thanks for any help.

Howdy, I am working on the MKS-70 adaptation patch editor, trying to get the patcheditor to edit patchbank entries. The basic problem is the bulk message dump requires 48 byte size, and the patcheditor requires 53 byte size allocations. When I read the midi-spec I see 52 entries for patch parameters, so it would seem the midi bulk dump is compressing some parameters (at least 4, but likely 8). This is probably just bit-bashing compression. My question is has anyone analysed a MKS-70 dump?, Does anyone know the compressed parameter fields? Does any one have any tips on bit-bashing a midi-bulk dump, so as to expand the values into say two fields in SD??? The Patcheditor needs the uncompressed values. One way is to make one adaption a MKS-70 bulk dump, and install it as a device, then have the MKS-70 regular adaption convert it's banks to be MKS-70 52 patch parameters. Mostly the trick is writing a converter just the JX-8P bank converter. Happy playin & thanx in advance for any help, RS

Officially (in a reply to my question Emagic writes "unfortunately there are no help files for SoundDiver public beta.") there are no help files for SoundDiver in OS X. However, help files that probably could be used exist, and there are no apparent principle differences between the OS 9 and OS X versions of the program (except of course that OS 9 works pretty OK, while OS X works only sporadically). Has anyone tried to figure out how to address the help files from within the OS X beta versions (1 and 2)? exdc

Saw your message, but I need time to investigate some things. I'l stay in touch.

If you have ordered a new midi interface this should come with any necessary drivers and your problems should be over. Here's hoping, steve Steve I have installed my new USB to MIDI interface. The driver is installed and is working properly. I believe that there is an outgoing signal but not an incoming signal. The midi monitor shows there is a signal out, and on start up it scans the incoming signal then fails to find one. What is the Device ID - is it possible that the channel does not match? I tried a loopback test and was told 'no data was returned'. I am now becoming frustrated. Anymore ideas. I have attached a screenshot - it may give a clue to the problem. Sorry about this - I'm a bit of a technophobe. Keith

Ingo, Please explain - what help compiler? Is there a way to access these help files from WITHIN Sounddiver, so that they are interactive and "follow" the selected functions as they used to always do? Regards - Colin

To run this program you'd need the source of the help file, that's why I wrote "for my own adaptations". After running SSHC the help works as it used to do. I experienced some crashes with the first beta when using the help though. Ingo

I'm in serious trouble with SD on Osx. I'm very disappointed of this, because I am not able to use Logic 6.4.2 and SD (what's about soundlink??? I don't find anymore the preset names on my single instruments in Logic) without crash ( of Logic, or SD or of Digi CoreAudio). But I paid even hard to have a professional system, and now, that I passed to G5 believing to enhance my system I have a lot of trouble. I can't use my SD library like before!! I have to work at several projects but I lost my time on crashes and other. Fulvio

Hello Michael Haydn! Ingo Debus sent me the following interchange between you and Colin Shapiro concerning the online help problem with the OS X betas of Diver: >Am 24.01.2004 um 11:56 schrieb Colin Shapiro: >>I don't have *ANY* help files in the OSX version. (apart from the >>basic SD index) Can someone else confirm this? >Yes. This was a mistake. We will soon provide a new version with all >online help included. >Beste Gruesse - best regards, >Michael Haydn So this was 8 months ago. I read all the rumors about Diver functionality in Logic 7, but now that Logic 7 has been released (not the physical item, at least not here in Sweden, but info about the upgrade package), there was no mention of Diver functionality. Assuming that Diver will continue as a separate product: when will the online help be back in order? I hope the very long period of time since the most recent update in an OS 9 version which came at about the same time as the first OS X beta which was not for SoundDiver users but for XSKey owners does not mean that the program will be quietly killed. Diver is an incredible platform that shouldn't be allowed to pass away. Best regards Michael Bransome PS I forgot to mention I have tried to replace the missing help material using SSHC but end up with adatations that crash both beta's.

Hallo, my Triton LE 76 has Operatingsystem 1.50 an I´m not able to load the Combinations in Sounddiver. I can load single combinations but not a whole bank. Seems to be a problem with SYS-EX DATA. Are there any hints for me? Who said that life is easy LG Uwe
