Re: DTXPort

Hi Bas

DTXport has not advanced in the last year, from its beta state. There 
is a document in the files section giving an overview of what exists 
right now.

That said I don't think that DTXport would be able to help you. From 
my analysis of the files from the different drum modules the file 
format has change a number of times. To the best of my knowledge, 
Yamaha have not published the formats. It is necessary to do a lot of 
trial and error guessing to successfully read all the data.

BTW there is a check digit at the end of the file and so editing any 
part of it with a Hex Editor will most probably render the file 
invalid.

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
