Also, I looked at the software for the other various keyboards and synths that they carry and all BUT the Remote Le had a way to update the OS via the template editor, thus bypassing the use of MIDI-OX. Just thought I would throw that out there. Also, now that you mention it TK, I dont know that it really matters, but both the Winbond and the SST 29ee512 appear to have been added after the rest of the board had been soldered down as they have a glue like residue around where they were added. Also the SST has a red "Y" written on it. Check this out too, found this on some random UK wiki site: "Despite its visual similarity to the ReMOTE and other Novation equipment, the ReMOTE LE is an entirely different beast internally. This is evident as soon as you analyze any of the SysEx data it deals with. Not only do the templates stray from the standard Novation format, but the operating system itself (as obtained from the Novation website) is packed in a simplified form within the SYX file, and once unpacked, appears to be for an entirely different architecture/CPU to the other devices. The OS data begins immediately after the header. Strangely this is where you'd normally expect a template name, and I'm not sure yet how the device differentiates between the two. Translating the Packed OS Unpacking the OS is a fairly straightforward process - each byte is split into its high 4-bits and low 4-bits, forming 2 new bytes with those bits as the least significant bits in the new bytes. If that sounds confusing, here's an example of how it works: 0xAB 0xCD -> 0x0A 0x0B 0x0C 0x0D So, to get the original data back we just reverse the process: 0x0A 0x0B 0x0C 0x0D -> 0xAB 0xCD It's a simple case of reading the first byte, multiplying it by 16, and adding the second byte, then continuing in this pattern." Can this be used in any way? D
