I recently won a used QY100 in a contest, and was super excited because I have always like the XG sound set. I figured that I could use this as a sound module for BiaB, Reaper, PT, and the VanBasco player to take some stress off of the system.
Well, it has been 3 days and I am ready to sell this thing, really. I can not get it to work with any of the software fully, EXCEPT for XG Works which it works flawlessly with...but I don't like nor use that sequencer.
Has anyone got the QY100 working correctly with BiaB? And as a side not, none of the instruction for the QY70 transfer to the QY100...I have tried.
Anyway, I figured I would ask here before I decide to sell it & look for a MU128 or higher. Thanks in advance for any & all info you might have!

I owned both of those great units, but never tried to connect them. Good luck.

I don't have experience with any external sequencers but I was interested in your question and did a little internet research. Have you accessed the Yamaha website via Bing Search for <qy100>? Yamaha supplies all the OEM documents for it - user manual, spec sheets, etc. Also, there are maybe 50 FAQ sheets detailing special use details for that specific device. Looks like its been around since 2000. Good reading and maybe helpful to you.
The Yamaha device specific midi driver for that machine is also available via a hotlink at the website.

Thanks for the responses Matt & Cacophony! Yes, I have all 3 manuals & everything I could find on the Yamaha site, the 5 XG Works, QY70 & 100 Yahoo groups,and from HERE, HERE, HERE, This Web Ring, but ALL of this says I have it set up right for using as a sound modual, either GM OR XG. But so far only XG Works 3 has worked 100% with it...sigh...oh well, lets see what happens by this weekend....Thanks Again folks!

Do you know about the GM menu in BIAB to send an XG initialization command? Essential to make the patch maps 0-based.

I tried the GM setting & the XG Generic one, but I did not know that GM could send an XG message...(one huge Midiot here). I will have to dig a little deeper into the settings in the manual I guess.... Thanks for the info Matt, it's appreciated!
