Well, my opinion remains the same (reposted from last time):

----------

1) Locate all the copies of the preset sound banks -- these have some 
different patches depending on when you purchased your A6, and a few of 
them are worth having (e.g. my sought-after strawberry flutes patch).  
These are gonna have to come from list members.  I'll send you my preset 
banks and you can tell me if you already have all of those sounds.  It 
might be worthwhile posting lists of patches in the preset banks so that 
list members can check before uploading.

2) Get list members to send in *all* of their half-decent or better 
patches for inclusion in the library.

3) Take Cyril's patch library and eliminate doubles -- can you do a 
compare (i.e. a "diff") on a patch-by-patch basis?  This would be the 
easiest way to eliminate doubles.

----------

You've already done number three.  I imagine getting 1) and 2) done is 
going to be a bit slow, but that's okay ... you've got something usable 
at the moment and that's fantastic!

I'll make copies of my preset and user banks and send them to you soon.

If you could make a list of your Preset Bank 1, Preset Bank 2, and User 
Bank default sounds, so that we can compare first to check if we have 
identical copies, that would be great.

Cheers,
Chris
