Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Peter,

Great news!!

Here is the response from Yamaha Japan:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
CC: Jim Haler

Hello,

Thank you for your proposal.

Actually we do have a convert tool of Sysex(MIDI bulk) data and
CSV(Spread sheet). But it is just only for internal development use so
we don't have a plan to be a public.
Also we don't have a plan to produce such kind of software right now.

But data format of MIDI sysex (bulk data, parameter change) is not a secret
 and we had been send a document for individual requests sinse DTXPRESS.

So If You or your friends want to know about data format, please request us.

Best regards,

-- 
So Tanaka

I think it is just a matter of asking Jim Haler now exactly what info. you
will need and we will be on our way.
