Vce files
djp:
I have a large amount of vce files for my genos that load but dont work is there a tool to adapt voices . This is also true of some non locked Yem packs you try to extract them and nothing is this something im doing wrong

Hi djp,
.vce files are just so called "Voice Set" files (also known as "User Voice" files). Such a (very small) file is created if you copy or save a Preset Voice or an installed Expansion Voice using within the Voice Selection display of the keyboard.
The "Voice" files in the individual subfolders of the Expansion folder are also such .vce files, and you can also create .vce files of Voices of Expansion Packs using the "Style Extractor" or the "YEM-CE" (YEM Content Explorer) program.
BUT: .vce files that are made from Expansion Pack Voices will only work if the corresponding Expansion Pack is INSTALLED properly. And .vce files that are made from Preset Voices will only work if the original Voice is present on the keyboard used.
P.S.
Voice Set files (User Voice files) can have different file extensions (depending on the Voice type of the original Voice):
.vce = Regular
.liv = Live!
.clv = Cool!
.swv = Sweet!
.nlv = S.Art! (e.g. on Tyros5)
.sar = S.Art!
.sa2 = S.Art2!
.mgv = MegaVoice
.org = Organ Flutes
.drm = Drums
.ldr = Live!Drums
.sfx = SFX
.lsf = Live!SFX
Best regards,
Chris

A vce file contains the *name* of a sample waveform, and a bunch of instructions on how to shape that waveform into a nice sound.
The named waveform must be present in either the present wave memory chip, or the expansion wave memory chip.
If it isn't - the vce doesn't do anything.
[OK it might store something like a UUID for the wave. But the idea's the same.]

Hi Derek,
in my opinion this is not entirely correct: ;)
A .vce file is basically a MIDI file. It contains the Voice Address (Bank Select MSB + LSB + Program Change) of the underlying Voice. So it refers to a certain (Preset or Expansion) VOICE, not to a certain Sample / Waveform. (A Voice can contain up to 8 "Elements" (sometimes also called "Layers"), and each "Element" of a Voice can use many different Samples.)
Best regards,
Chris

All these type of voices just contain the effects you have used to tweak a voice which you link to the voices on your keyboard. If these voices are removed then these files are of no use to you as they do not contain the sound.
