Can someone tell me exactly why Instrument Definitions even exist in Cakewalk? I hooked up a Korg 01/W (MIDI Out) to my computer (MIDI In), imported Instrument Definitions Bank into my project; & played. My Sound Module (Roland JV-1010) played it's own version of the Korg sounds. I tried Sysx dumps.I tried everything (I think.) My question is, if Instrument Definitions from one manufaturer won't play on a sound module from another manufacturer, what's the freakin' point? What exactly is their purpose? Instrument Definitions won't change internal sounds of your module. It just a file being imported into Cakewalk, assign into specific port that hooked into same specific instrument, so you'll see the patch/program's name of the instrumen within Cakewalk, instead of number 0.127.

Korg grants you, the original purchaser, the non-exclusive right to use the program and the data file constituting this software and the upgrade program(s) as well as the data file(s) which may be distributed to you from time to time (hereinafter referred to collectively as “Licensed Program”) on associated Korg product(s) and/or a single computer under your control and used by only one person at a time.

Let's assume you have KORG O1/W hooked on port 1 and Korg O5R/W sound module on port 2. Import their definitions from korg.ins file into Cakewalk. Assign 'em into port 1 and 2.

Over-the-Air technology allows some software updates for certain vehicle components to be downloaded and installed over a wireless connection. This technology provides a convenient way to update your vehicle with some of the latest available software. I was amazed at how many different hardware part numbers there were in just the 2014 model year and once my hardware was replaced, there was a software update for that hardware version. The dealer tech had to plug into my truck, gather the current module information along with my VIN to determine what it needed. 2015 gmc intellilink software update.

When you want to look for sound 'String' in Bank A, you'll see it in the track's programs name list. Dumping the sys ex. Won't do this. It dump the internal setting of your keyboard/synth/module setting (such like programs, combi & global setting) into Cakewalk.

You can save the sys data into files, and sent back to the synth latter when you mess around with the synth's setting.

Hello everyone. A former SONAR user here, and I was just in the process of learning about (and needing) an instrument definition file to use within SONAR with my Roland Fantom XR.

I went to Roland's site, and they have a definition file for SONAR, Cubase and a couple others. Is REAPER able to use these.INS files? Are they necessary? I would think so! I am just in the process of starting to hook up my Fantom to my DAW; I never had any luck with this in SONAR. In fact, SONAR hated my new machine. In REAPER, everything just seems to work.

It just does! Is that too much to ask!? (rolls eyes) Thanks in advance!
