Re: [DTXpress] Can I download kits from the "DTXpressions" web site for DTX 2.0 brain??

2000-12-05 by Mark T. Owen

The memory is a non-volatile e-prom... a memory chip that retains the instruction set that you have programed, even when unplugged for long periods. The sounds are not created in the unit exactly. They are from a standard MIDI ( Musical Instrument Digital Interface) library that you manipulate by altering pitch, reverb, decay, etc. In addition to these GM voices (General MIDI) that are used by all MIDI instrument manufacturers, there are additional voices created by Yamaha (or for Yamaha) using the MIDI standard, but unique to this brand. Other manufacturers have enhanced their devices in the same way. So some sounds will be common to all brands, others unique.

Are these kits "stored" into memory---if so, what does the brain use
for memory, does it have a hard drive????

Are the kits that are downloadable produced from sounds already in
the DTxpress brain or do they come from somewhere else???
