[LAU] cakewalk instrument definitions (*.ins) for qtractor

[NielsMayer at gmail.com]

So I found  
http://www.tweakheadz.com/how_to_build_a_cakewalk_ins_file.htm ...
It points me to ftp://ftp.cakewalk.com/pub/InstrumentDefinitions/ which  
shows many more.

But when i get to my goal, which is to find "Yamaha Classics.ins" (  
http://www.yamaha.com/yamahavgn/CDA/KnowledgeBase/KnowledgeBaseDetail.html?CNTID=10165&CTID=400005  
)
I'm lead to a ".exe" (bleh!)  
http://www.yamaha.com/yamahavgn/ProductMedia/MIDI/InsDefs-2.exe

Anybody have said extracted "Yamaha Classics.ins" (is there a way for wine  
to safely run such self-extracting files, or a hack that doesn't  
require "running" unverified code to extract a file??)

> IMPORTANT: The file 'Yamaha Classics.ins' (included in the download  
> below) contains the following instrument definitions: AN1X, DX7, EMT10,  
> MU50, P100, PROMIX 01, PSR300, PSR500, PSR520, PSR530, PSR6700,
> QS300, QY10, SPX90, SY22, SY35, SY55, SY77, SY85, SY99, TG33, TG100,  
> TG300, TG500, TX7, VL70.

I wanted to see if there's any difference between their QS300 and TG300  
versus what i found previously http://www.cybertown.com/xginstr.zip ==  
YamahaXG.ins
(for Yamaha db50xg/db60xg == qs300/tg300 ... see  
http://old.nabble.com/Suzuki-QC1-Qchord-Digital-Songcard-Guitar-to28495861.html#a28502002  
)

And of course, if you know of other places w/ instrument definition files,  
please post to this thread.

Thanks,
