Re: [CZsynth] Re: New To Group: Seeking XW-P1 Cakewalk INS File

2012-06-09 by Wilson Zorn

Hey, Happyrat, THANK YOU for having reached out so much on this issue
and getting the possibility of the person at Harmony Central creating
an .INS file, very cool!  I do hope Casio will have the smarts to
provide a lot of support for this synth, hopefully helping people with
just this kind of thing, to promote it.

I have the performance version, the XW-G1, so I hope someone will
create one for that also, although hacking at the P1 version would be
good as a start if that's the only one available.

Do keep us advised, of course if I see something i'll post so.
