[linux-audio-user] [ANN] Simple Sysexxer 0.1.1

[Dave Phillips]

Greetings:

Last night I was playing around with Native Instruments' FM7, running it 
under WINE with Robert Reif's ASIO driver. I noticed that it will accept 
raw sysex banks, so I decided to build Simple Sysexxer to see if I could 
get my custom banks from my TX802. No problem, I transferred the bank 
sysex to SS. I then tried to import the bank into FM7. Again, no 
problems. How nice, I can now use and edit my old favorite patches in FM7.

Alas, FM7 seems to accept only the data utilized by the original DX7, 
i.e. it skips the performance data unique to the DX7II/TX802. Still, 
most of my patches were identifiable, and I think I can get almost 
identical sounds with a little parameter tweaking.

Christoph, thanks for the useful tool. It built without troubles and 
performed as advertised. :)

Best,
