Re: Yamaha XG Effects
I think that may be more of an issue with generating controller data. Have you heard the demos Yamaha made in house? They were able to program some surprisingly convincing guitar solos, but there is a

Will do.
So far:-

Re: Data Filer for modern Macs? (Monterrey etc)
Although the subject of the PPC emulation is a little off topic for this group, I for one will be interested in your efforts. I keep an old G4 alive just for an occasional need, so I was not highly

Re: Data Filer for modern Macs? (Monterrey etc)
Hi Trail Boss, thanks for the suggestion.
I looked into it and am now experimenting with open source emulator UTM with a preconfigured VM for Mac OS 9
It boots up nicely, so I just have to attach

Very interesting. I picked up a QY100 last week, Had one many years ago but realized that I never pushed it¡¯s potential. Once I started to peruse the styles, I fell in love with the QY100

Thanks for the offer! I rigged up something similar in principle using Logic's environment and had a Peavey control surface for a while. It was satisfying to be that thorough, but I didn't actually

Re: Data Filer for modern Macs? (Monterrey etc)
I could use datafiler in sheepshaver but that¡¯s no fun, it puts the data in a sandbox.
It would be fun to have a daw plugin to manage the QY.

Re: Preset styles and what they are based on?
I now have a QY100 but I kinda miss the musical numbers on the QY70. Is it my imagination or are the fake songs tamer on the QY100?
Everything was more authentic before the Internet took over.

Re: Data Filer for modern Macs? (Monterrey etc)
It would be nice to make an app that would take the place of the data filer.
I¡¯m going to assume it¡¯s possible with sysEx but maybe not completely.

Considering that you can probably pick up a power PC Apple (laptop hopefully) for probably under $25 (total guess) on eBay it might be worth going that route just to have a back up solution¡ Totally

Jonah,
I have done quite a bit as far as unlocking or making accessible pretty much all of the parameters of the QY 70/QY100¡ But it requires a Novation Remote SL MKII¡ either the 25, 37, 48 or

Re: Data Filer for modern Macs? (Monterrey etc)
That would be nice, but as you suspect... it's not a thing Apple seem interested in doing.
Actually, as a long time Mac user, I'd like it if they focused on getting their new OS's working

Do macs have any type of PowerPC emulation mode?
Seems odd if they don¡¯t, but then again Apple is not a huge believer of backward compatibility¡ they are more of the ¡°Just buy new

Hello,
unfortunately the Data Filer for Mac was created for the Macs of that

Data Filer for modern Macs? (Monterrey etc)
Hi - I'm able to use the Data Filer under Windows 10, but my PC is not my computer of choice, so I wanted to try and get the Data Filer running on my Mac (under Monterrey).

Hey - thanks for that - I'll look into the Play Effects -> Swing as the QY100 doesn't have Groove Templates. I'll assume for now that it is the same or similar effect.
