Hi Guys,

I have a question concearning the DX2G2 converted Patches.
I converted several DX7 Patches I found on the net.
So far so good.
But now I'm wondering where the Portamento function in the G2 Patches is. Maybe someone could explain that to me. I imagined it to be like on any other Synth I know i.e. the old Rolands etc. but I cannot find where to set the glide time that the sound slides from one note to the next.

Cheers

Hi Ian,
I knew about the "on-board function" of the G2. I just thought there is an extra portamento function bulid with modules in the G2 DX- Patches.

Cheers

There is a glide module in there but looks like it just adds a 9.3ms glide to the S+H waveform. You could add another but the base patch is at 50% Mem in the VA so your going to cut your max poly voice count.

Thanks for your help Ian! I'll try this then.

I have installed Phyton and was using CMD console but only get "failed patches".
Any ideas?

Win 7 32

Thanks in advance

Command prompt says so:
"Failed patches:nm2g2*.pch" (all files inside the g2tools folder)
"failed patches:Juno.pch" (single patch insode g2tools folder)
Typing "python" or "Python" inside cmd give me this:
"python is not recognized as an internal or external command"

Running the IDLE Python GUI:

"Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell>", line 1, in <module>
nm2g2.exe
NameError: name 'nm2g2' is not defined
>>> "

Python 2.7.3

Got it working now.

Just downloaded the G2oolsGUI,re-installed and followed the detailed info there and everything is fine now.
I used this command :"nm2g2 -r Dirname"

Thanks for your support

Hi there,
I know a bit of python but don't understand much about the G2X patches.
I have a few FM patches on my G2X.
I was thinking of trying to convert them back to sysex
It would be a big job to try and figure out all the code in reverse.
Anyone else looking for the same thing?

Guys hi, I'm also trying to convert some dx banks and i'm getting the same error as above (index out of range) in some of them. Anyone knows how to fix this or how this was fixed in the first message (...11 years ago!)?

if the error happens on the first patch (for example) of the sysex file, I can manually replace that with another patch from the same sysex file and it will convert. Therefore...alternatively, is there a way to split/extract the 32 patches per sysex file so that they can be converted one by one and reduce the number of errors?

Does not work for me. Win 11. Tried both the exe and the Python (after installing Python). I have zero clue where to place files so I tried every possibility. All ever get is a possibly DOS looking screen that appears and dissappears within 1 one hundredth of a second.

Looking for a clue.
