---

Edit (and enhance...) the sounds of  your DB50XG or SW60 beyond what seemed possible...

Description

QSEdit is a shareware editor and librarian (to some extent) to handle editing of the user voices on Yamaha DB50XG and SW60. These voices are accessable ar Bank 63, Program 1-32. It may work with the QS300 as well, but as of now it has only been tested with the DB50XG.

Features

• Graphical user interface.
• Create and edit new QS300 voices for the Yamaha DB50XG, SW60XG.
• Can play QS300 voices with 4 elements on a DB50XG/SW60XG by splitting the voice into 2 voices on 2 MIDI channels. To use this feature check the "4 element mode" check box.
• Can capture QS300 Bulk dumps on incoming MIDI.
• Enables you to create and handle voice libraries.

Requirements

• Windows 95 (should work with Windows NT 4, but not tested yet)
• Yamaha DB50XG daughter board or SW60XG sound card
• Graphics card supporting high color (16 bit color depth at least) is recommended

Known Limitations

• This beta will only run satisfatory in "High Color" display  mode (16-bit color depth or more).
• The function of QSEdit together with QS300 is not yet tested. To have a chance to work corretly it will require you to turn "4 element mode" off.
