OK, I took the plunge and bought a license of OPS7.? I'm in the slightly painful process of converting my TX802 programs and settings into VSTi presets for Cakewalk.? In the process I need a few of the factory patches from the TX802.
Does anyone have the Factory A + B banks in SysEx form?? Searching the forum archives and elsewhere, I can find lots of copies of the *Performance* memories (which can be easily overwritten), as well as blank Voice banks.? That's not what I need.
I'm figuring that even after my first work to convert to the soft-synth, once in a while I'll need a classic FM sound that already exists in DX-land, maybe even in the TX factory patches.? But once I've converted over to the OPS7, it's not going to be easy to access them:? they're in the TX802's ROM banks, not on my laptop.
I know I can copy all of the Bank A programs to the User Bank, one at a time; then dump them to SysEx; then 'rinse and repeat' with Bank B.? If necessary, I'll do that, and I'll post the results in the Files section.? But I'm hoping to avoid this tedious task.
Alternately, if someone knows for certain that the TX802 Factory Voices are the same as those in the DX7II, then I'll try to use them.
