The program you want is Soundlib. It's freeware. I think you should be
able to find it in a search. Don't forget to get the freeware password
(it used to be shareware but the author has released it as freeware now).
Beware though. Soundlib sends and recieves DX7 (original version) data
only. It wont store the extra settings that DX7II patches. For
instance: The original DX7 didn't have different functions for the Mod
wheel in every patch. You set it to work a certain way, and it
affectedevery patch the same way, until you changed it. The DX7II stores
a setting for the Mod wheel in every patch. If you store your DX7II
patch in Soundlib it will lose these extra settings. Also, make sure
sysex is on.(that will be in a MIDI button, you will have to be in EDIT
mode to access these). You can specify (in a MIDI menu on the DX7II)
whether a bank of 32 patches goes to locations 1-32 or 33-64.
Yours,

Hi !
I'm new on this list. I'm a total beginner with sysex, and I wander if
DX7 patches can be used with a DX7IIFD (I'm the lucky owner of this
one). I tried once to use a DX7 sysex bank, and my DX7IIFD didn't want
it. Is there something special to prepare DX7 banks before using them
with DX7IIFD ? Is there a program that do it automatically ?
Thanks in advance.
Greetings to everyone.
