Hope the photos are clear enough to place the soldering iron in the right spot... ;) Re: OLED: you bet it! it would be the perfect solution (i.e. longer battery life). Problem is that research for

Re: QY100 display light
Well, gents, *it worked*! Just a half-hour affair, now that I'm sure on where to tap the 3.3V. Made a bunch of pictures, check in the [Photos](/g/YamahaQY70AndQY100/album?id=244175)

Just an update... after 52 days, the parcel with the Game Boy Advance front light kit arrived! Normally, from China to Italy it takes 30-40 days, in these times, kudos to the international mail
Re: SmartMedia Card unreadable in QY100 after opening in Win10
Update on this for reference. It's not a full step-by-step because there are many floating variables. I've had to resort to using Archive.org a lot to track down the correct info and files, I felt

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
@Jim. Sorry I am using a QY70 with no SM slot. So good there is an option on the '100 and yes Prea input was useful for me too. Ive not tried to record MIDI (since I had no compooter back in 1999

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
Okay - now it's finally becoming as clear as I need it to be! Thanks squishy for mentioning that ... going back to the manual (page 259), it shows the full range of saving options (including SMF) are

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
To transfer MIDI files from and to the QY100 I use the functions provided by the Data Filer program, in particular to move pieces of material to be assembled in phrases or to export small MIDI chunks

" I'm not seeing in the manual where it shows an option to select 'SMF' ... but I'll assume it's there in the (UTILITY) Bulk Dump area." Im not sure there is, not afaik. I think there arent many

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
Thanks Prea for the further help with my 2 questions, and it's been fun reading the discussion that's followed as well ... And looking again at the QY100 manual (page 250), I now see this: "To ensure

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
You are right and I added that factor into my research before buying one. One Amazon review by a musician stated that it worked ok for SysEx and I took a punt on his word being correct and so far it

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
Cheap USB-to-MIDI are excellent! The only problem is that many of them have small buffers and cannot sustain high transfer rates, that is, cannot do SYSEX dumps. Unfortunately, as far as I know it

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
I forgot to add that I use a TiTo USB-MIDI interface. That was a 15€ amazon purchase. Works grand. I chose that though bcoz of MscOS constraints.

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
FYI: I use a QY70 with my Mac. It connects fine via OSX core MIDI Audio Setup app. I then use the freeware app SysEx Lib to save/send QY70 bulk dumps between Mac and QY. But this is all Ive

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
Hi again Jim I see two independent issues here, and I'va found a way to sort both out. First, connectivity. the QYs (the 70 on the right side, the 100 at back right) have a switch to choose among

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
Thanks for the advice Prea - it is appreciated. After looking into this some more, it sounds like there are 3 general ways to approach connecting the QY100 to a computer: 1) Serial - adding a

Re: Connecting QY100 to Computer Via USB to Serial Adapter?
Hi Jim although coupling vintage with vintage is fascinating indeed, I recommend using a cheapish MIDI-to-USB adapter: I also tried for both 100 and 700, and something like this
