I just listened to some of the demos and can't wait until later in the year when they get ported over to the Mac. Some of the new instruments sound great! Keep up the good work.

Jan R Apprentice Joined: Nov 2003 Posts: 143 Noord-Holland, The Netherlands	Hi Andrew, after updating 2010 to 2010.5 and installing the RT 83-101 files I am missing some instrument files. That issue was already raised by other users. Now I like to check all instrument files (01-101), ST2 and XT2 files for missing data. What I need is a list of: - all ST2 files - all XT2 files - instrument files 01-82. Is that information available on the website or can you privode that? Is there an easier way to check the completeness of all these files? When can I expect a patch to solve the issue of missing files. Thanks, Jan R. piano: Hammond Skx Pro guitar: Ibanez LGB30 guitar amp: Boss Katana 50 MKII

Also, you can press the Show RealTracks that are N/A, and then sort by names, and you can then see a list of the RealTracks that begin with N/A. Have Fun! Peter Gannon PG Music Inc.

Jan R Apprentice Joined: Nov 2003 Posts: 143 Noord-Holland, The Netherlands	Sorry Peter. I should have mentioned that I am aware of this functionality and already tried. According to the RT Picker there are no missing files. I know why I got confused. The names of the instruments in the list you provide in this topic are not the same is showed in the RT Picker. Some examples: Set 99: Fiddle, Rhythm Country Waltz is called Fiddle, Background Country Waltz Set 101: Ukulele, Strumming is called Ukulele, Strumming FolkSwing Set 101: Fiddle, Rhythm MemphisSwing is called Fiddle, Background MemphisSwing There are more sets where instrument names in the list differs from the names in the RT Picker.
