.. Gave up after 1 1/2 hours to get Genos and Mac to talk via wifi. ...
This is a security issue that happening only on Mac. I helped a friend with 2 Mac, on one of them it worked, on the other did not. It was a security issue, and we did it (10 minutes to getting work).
.. you just sit there for 15 minutes, with no change, (except look at your activity monitor on computer) to tell you the process is working.
Indeed, for some reasons, the UI is freezing for some time to time, but not from the beginning to the end of transferring process. Somewhere at the middle, it freezes for couple of minutes, and then its unfreeze and show the progress bar. I transfer most of my packs over WiFi, not USB Stick
The only thing is making me a question, is that on every WiFi transfer I get a information message that tells me "Quick installation is not available", or something like that. Even so, it does not formatting the keyboard, because the screen with formatting is taking somewhere of 2-3 seconds...
The amount of total memory I have in Genos has changed twice from 3072 mb to 4096 mb. that's obviously a bug.
Look up in the top center of the screen. It also changes from Wave size to Pack size. On Genos, Pack installation size has maximum of 4096 MB.
About 1 hour into saving a sound pack, that that will almost fills Genos.. YEM says still saving the installation pack. yet my computer activity monitor tells me Yes is only using 1.4% of CPU power. Looks like a phone call to Yamaha Monday..
To me it takes about 10 minutes - 1660 MB from 3072, about 10 Packs, CPF and PPF
Microsoft Windows 10 64 bits, i5 3300, 3.3GHz, 8GB RAM.
FOLLOW UP.. After YEM's first lock up. I did create a sound pack, and transferred to a USB.. YEM looked like it locked up.. Never said process was completed. I plugged the USB and Pack Installed into Genos'.. It took about 40 minutes to fill GENOS about 95%. Things appear to be working.. Although Yamaha's Alto Saxes do not load properly, although they are listed in YEM. I'll call Yamaha about that. Two attempts with Alto saxes did not work.. My other Yamaha Packs installed properly.
A very long time. Try to reinstall your YEM. Did you try it on other PC? I think you have some problem with installation (I'm pretty sure).
About that voices, if not loading then it seems they have to be converted to work with Genos.
