well as i posted not long ago....my polaris would NOT accept the 
audio data of  the factory patches  that i got off the rhodesshroma 
website....and i did transfer it to cassette in a couple diffrent 
ways...no one could tell me why that didnt work in a way  i could 
prove...one theory was that the digital audio cant be read by the 
polaris which needs analog audio... but my response was to give up, 
say 'why do i need factory patches anyway'...most were fairly boring 
and lame, and just made my own sounds... Hopefully you can load in 
the info off the computer, somehow i couldnt...
