Just an FYI:

You can access the "upper bank" patches by opening the DGX203/206 .Pat file within Biab.

Thanks for the downloads. I haven't tried them yet as I have to figure out how to get them installed correctly and then pointed to correctly from Biab.

Prior to having Biab I used a Yamaha PSR910 for creating my backing tracks and was very happy with the styles and sounds of Yamaha. That your download can be added to Biab as a default to upgrade from Coyote is kind of exciting.

Like an earlier poster, I have an external module Roland Sound Canvas MKII but find the rendering to be slow and a bit awkward so I don't use it much.

I had a Roland Integra 7 briefly and completely bombed out with it... I was looking to use it for the guitar expansion pack, 6,000 + sounds and I found I would normally use about 30 different sounds in most cases.

Biab including sforzando has reignited my interest in midi and I truly appreciate your contribution to offer an alternative default with higher quality midi sounds.

Now I just hope to be like musiclover and get my head around on how to get it to work on my system.

for info
I have made you a dedicated pat for this see this post
http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=395775#Post395775

the DGX203/206 pat will offer more voices than you have in this set as it will contain the pannel voices as sent from the DGX keyboard as well as the xg lite set.

HI ALL
Thank you for your interest,

Nothing complicated just download the Zip file and unzip to a folder find the Dll file in the folder and copy to where you normally keep your Vsti
You can move the whole extracted folder to there if you like as long as you know where you have put it.
In BIAB you will have to add it to your vsts in the normal way by using add, and navigating to it you will only have to do this once. After that BIAB will offer it to you as a installed vsti

If you do no more, this will give you a XG GM set of voices.
If you want access to the higher extended banks of voices in the XG light set, you will need to download and install my Pat file in BIAB.
Then you can call up the fancy voices like piano and strings that is msb 0 Lsb 40 voice 1 , by using the choose patch (voice) from pat file in the mixer. Don’t worry you will be shown the voices by name the pat file will look after the msb lsb bit.

Here is a link to the pat file

Have fun
Mike

Mike,

Good job! Nice to see the continued interest in midi. Personally, I prefer the Yamaha Synths over Roland and some others. In 2004, I splurged on a Yamaha Motif synth (first generation), and am still using it frequently. I also subsequently purchased the rack Motif ES (2nd generation) that I use with my midi-synth enabled guitars and as sound engine for midi files I create or from BB. Just to throw out a few other soft synth I've been using for years are the Cakewalk(SONAR) TTS-1 that Peter Gannon has listed in the BBW forum, and Dimension Pro (32bit & 64 bit). Between the two hardware Yamaha synths and Cakewalk soft synths, I have a lot to pick from. Cakewalk is now owned by Bandlab but Dimension Pro is still available from them. One last thing...for all things Yamaha Motif and midi, a great resource is http://www.motifator.com/. They have been around for quite some time.

I know this thread is several years old but I'm going to ask anyway. First of all, thanks for putting the VST together.

Im having trouble accessing the patches above 127 in my DAW (Ableton Live). If I change the bank to 2, there's no sound coming out of the VST. What setting should I use to access the sounds above 127? I tried sub-banks too, nothing does it. I can only access sounds 0-127.

Thank you so much!

Hi Mike

thanks for your always valuable work/information sharing with us.

I have some trouble, that Biab recognizes the vst/plugin at all.

Even when I locate directly the folder the dll files are located, the are not recognized and i have a message, that says it is not a "valid" VST2 plugin or so.

The folder I picked contains the below files.

Any tipps on this?

Cheers Stefan
