Patches and discussion for Ensoniq VFX family

Greetings.  From my limited knowledge of the SD1 I believe it is limited in 
that it does not have the ability to select banks. That was part of the 
upgrade to the TS. 

On programmable modules your best bet is to customize your best sounds into 
the first 60 slots of the user bank.  The SD1 can access the first 60 sounds 
of a midi module easily.  The manual has workarounds for higher numbers up to 
120, I believe, but I've not had personal success learning the commands on 
that. 

Since the 1010 is only programmable via software you would need to use that 
software program and with the librarian of the software customize your sounds 
to fit into the user bank, numbers 1-60. You could then access those 60 
sounds from the SD1. 

Alternatively, the simplest of all approaches, involving no extra work, is to 
keep the 1010 in the mode that plays the Session sound bank (or one of the 
other preset modes) and find out if you have enough usable sounds within the 
first 60 sounds of the 1010 preset bank.  Hope this helps.  Warmly yours,
Frank Fortunato
