Re: Never lend midi gear :(

Hey,

I had kind of a similar situation a few weeks ago, in my case my cat had walked over my controller many times and managed to destroy my preset.
What saved me was putting a clean .sysex file back using birdy's bcfedit. Available in this yahoo group.

Wishing you all the best.
Pim
