Re: [CZsynth] cz101

Karl,
 
I am using MIDI-ox to store CZ101 backups - I know that there is no front panel dump initiation on the CZ101 - and I cannot recall the SYSx message to start it. However,since yoou say that you have got as far as starting the dump - you might try MIDI-ox (midiox.com)as it shows what is coming from the output MIDI port as well as storing the SYSx.
If I think on I will check the messages required as I have them on printout and I know I have done it before to move sounds from the CZ101 to 230s.
 
The set up should be that the PC sends a SYSx message to the CZ and from the PC out to the CZ in and the CZ out should then send to the PC in - if the PC has any THRU enabled then this might cause problems with transfer and should be disabled.
I haven't done any CZ transfers for a while I will have to check it out.
 
LEE

I've been trying to find a bank librarian that works for my CZ. I've tried Soundlib and MidiQuest versions 4.0,6.0, and 10. Basically, with all of them I ask the CZ send it's bank to the computer, I get the message the bank is being retrieved, and no data arrives.

The Soundlib guy doesn't seem to be contactable. The MidiQuest guys say MidiQuest seems to work with some CZ's but not others. They don't know why.

The midi cables are fine, midi channel 1 being used, and memory protect off, so I think all obstacles are out of the way.

Does anybody know of a librarian which is likely to work, or have any helpful comments for Soundlib and/or MidiQuest?

Many thanks, Karl May
