Interesting question Rharv.

I've deleted all the lines of code in the .INI file for synths I do not have or need. My Yamaha Motif Rack XS has 1024 patches, my Roland Fantom XR also has 1024 patches. The Montage has almost 3000 presets. So, theoretically, the .INI file could be over 5000 lines!

Strangely, when I look at the .INI file RB put together for the combined 3 synths, it has 14,381 lines! I think that it is also pulling in the 10,000 some arpeggio types the Montage has too! Still learning this monster of a synth...Montage!

Nonetheless, have spoken with Simon at PG Technical support. According to him, while the .BIN file is unlimited. It appears that the conversion from .INI to .BIN to the limiting factor. The .INI can only accept up to 2000 lines per conversion.

So the way he suggests that I address this to to divide the Montage patch list into multiple sections. Separately add this to the .INI file, allow the conversion to .BIN and then repeat with the other sections of the Montage listing.

I'll try this later today and report back with results.
