I understand that there is a Music-X mailing list. Can someone send
me information on joining?

I wrote a Music-X librarian protocol for Yamaha FB-01 configurations.
I will try to knock out the voice banks protocol this weekend. I am
willing to share these. I am also interested in Music-X libraian
protocols for Yamaha DX-11 configurations and editors for all of the
above.

I would also like to convert some sys-ex dumps (DX11 voice banks) that
I have on disk into the Music-X library format. I tried to suspend
Music-X and use tsx (uses MIDI.LIBRARY) to transmit a bank to the DX-11
and then switch back to Music-X to receive the bank. Unfortunately
this hangs the machine and I have to reboot for every bank. That is
just too tedious. Anyone have a better idea?

I also had problems converting a DMCS score. In DMCS I saved as SMUS
and then used the utility to convert from SMUS to Music-X. I got the
number of sequences(4) I expected but all of my chords had been reduced
to one note. Is this a 4 note limit of SMUS or DMCS implementation of
SMUS?

I also have some Mimetics Pro Midi sequences I would like to convert
to Music-X. I haven't tried any yet, but my experience with DMCS to
SMUS has me questioning that route.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
