translate them like that. The problem is I used to do this on pc, i 
am on a mac now, and i have no idea how to make to midi apps 
talk together.

I tried to set up a bulk dump from SysEx452 using an IAC bus 
from OMS and routed it to the input of ANExpert Editor - no joy. I 
might try again later after I shutdown and restart. I've never used 
IAC this way before - not certain if I should expect it to work.I've 
only used it for simple MIDI Events like Note Events and CC's.

I tried a straight dump from SysEx to my AN1x - also, no joy. I was 
expecting you would upload a .MID file not a .SYX file. I'm 
assuming using a .MID file from a MIDI Seq treats the base 
address ID of the AN200 vs. AN1x differently where as using 
SysEx the AN1x ignores the AN200 base address ID :-( Can you 
make a seperate .MID dump from your AN200. Also, it would be 
helpful to know if the dump contains vices, patterns, or both.

 
> I am posting the dump of my an200 , check out patch 9, it is the 
closest i can get to the pizz in insomnia without a chorus and 
without tweaking the vco's pitch. I think if i could add chorus and 
change the pitch on the vco's it would work out pretty close. I am 
told that patch he is playing is an jp-8000 , and as much as i like 
the 8080 i dont want to buy one when i want to get a virus down 
the road.

FYI, there is a terrific bank of JP8000 emulations provided by 
Yamaha in the FIles section. Download the archive from Yamaha 
and you'll find it. Perhaps the patch you're after is in that voice 
bank?
