Dave, it worked. It is starting to look like you guys cannot separate Fran from his G1000. What is this - a life time union??? It may take the intervention of the supreme court or something.

rikkisbears, thanks for your advice. I have tried those programs and they go part way but do not translate the individual drum instruments within a kit from XG to GM. Even OMB has some features that improve the playing of styles on a GM Wavetable - but no cigar!!! Furthermore, it looks like Styleworks also may not solve the problem.

Oh well the hunt continues!!!
