Re: [DW8000] Re: uploading syx. files into my korg from my pc

2003-08-05 by greg montalbano

OK, I'm at my office & don't have access to the synth, but here are some 
things I can tell you:
1)  Tape should NOT be enabled -- we're using MIDI here.

Next, we have to verify that your computer & MIDIOX are correctly 
configured & connected....

2)  Verify that your computer MIDI Out goes to the DW8000 MIDI In; and that 
the computer MIDI In connects to the DW8000 MIDI Out.
3)  In the MIDIOX program, go to the "OPTIONS  - MIDI Devices" window, and 
make sure your computer's MIDI In & Out are selected.
4)  Verify that your computer & dw are communicating, by playing a few 
notes on your dw keyboard -- the MIDI monitor screen on your computer 
should show what you played.  Now, go to the "Actions" window & select 
"Keyboard" -- this allows you to press keys on your computer keyboard and 
play notes on the dw.
--- if that works, then you are correctly connected & configured.

Now, go to "View SysEx", open the "Command" window, "Send" sysex file --
this works for me, and has worked for other folks as well.

If you're still having problems, let me know, & we'll explore it further.
