This is a massive undertaking, I had no idea you can convert from any style format to any other. A very big thank you! How did you resolve the Pa2x style encryption?
Best regards,

Hi Rob, my take on this would be that the software would obviously have to recognise each style format and then convert each style part to midi using just GM format for uniformity, so that there are multiple parts per style. All the Intro's, variations etc. Then the clever bit would be the ability to transfer those saved midi parts to a specific style format. All clever stuff but theoretically possible as styles are based on midi anyhow.... EMC have cracked it so it can be done... The style encryption for pa2x is another matter but pa1x is OK.
is this just manager, can u play those styles when u manage them, or just copy/move? Is this program free, or not, and whats the price, and where can i find demo/full version(if available)?
I think we have enough beta testers now, I'd actually prefer at this point that everyone who has been using the program stop and send me back your “style-manager.bbd” file if you have added content to the program. I also haven't recieved any feedback from some people. Maybe your happy and found no issues ?
I'd like to push forward to the final stage now and test the import & export functions I've written by merging all the content you guys added which will also function as a tool to allow you all to freely share databases with each other in the future. Once that's done the program will be released to the public for everyone to download and I will write a manual.
I'll post a few images in a moment showing some of the new functions I've added.
I'm still waiting for people to send me back their style-manager.bbd files or at least communicate with me to say that they haven't added any content to the program and that they have only been testing it.
I've only received one so far which I will be looking at today.
It's very important that anyone who has added content to the program send me their style-manager.bbd files because the files the beta version runs on are not compatible with the final version. I'm twiddling my thumbs here with nothing to do until I get those files.
Honestly there's nothing left for beta testers to try. I have to complete one part and I can't do that until I get the files back from the beta testers.
I could finish the program in a single day if I had the files right now.
