Hi,

As mentioned in a previous message ...

I'm having real troubles getting a patch bank to load properly into my 
A6.

I'm using MIDI-OX, and am using a setting of 64 512 byte buffers, with
100 ms delays between buffers and after F7's.  Furthermore, I increased 
the delay in the A6 hidden system menu to 15000.

But no matter what, after loading a sysex patch bank, to either the 
user patch bank or to a bank on my 2 Mb memory card, there are always 
some patches that, when selected, cause the OS to hang.  Anybody else 
experience similar problems?  What can I do about this?

I'll try increasing the delays and see where I get, but the exact
settings other people use would be much appreciated!

Cheers,
Chris

Never mind, I got it to work ... this isn't mentioned anywhere in the
manual or tips and tricks document, so I'll share it with you (although
most people probably know already):

I tried sending a patch bank to my computer, and the screen says that
each patch is 2048 bytes.  So, in MIDI-OX, I set each output buffer to
2048 bytes and made 128 buffers.  I also set the delay times to be 250 
ms.  I'm pretty sure that it was the 2048 bytes setting that fixed
things.
