OMS Convert
... an OMS to Cubase 5/SX patch
name converter ...
- a free utility to convert your OMS Patch Name documents into Cubase
5.x, SX 1.x and 2.x formats
- full aqua user interface
- no documentation yet - you should be able to figure out though
- compatible with OS X 10.2.x or greater (including 10.3, Panther)
- current version: beta
2, November 23, 2003 (now compressed as a Stuffit X file, for those that had trouble with the app not starting up)
- current bugs & known limitations
- the default output path for converted files is for SX 1.0x versions. If you use SX 2.x, you should set your output directory preference to the following path: /Users/YOURUSERNAME/Library/Preferences/Cubase sx2/Scripts/Patchnames/
- not all error checking is working - if you see a rainbow cursor that
doesn't go away, and no error message in the Status window, you'll have to
force quit the application
- for a variety of reasons, not all OMS patch name functionality is
converted (in some instances because Steinberg did not include the support
in their patch name structure)
- controller info
- note name info
- General MIDI equivalent
- default MIDI channels per mode
- careful about weird characters in file names - not a lot of error
checking in this area
- please send me info about both success and problems
