   VcEd is a voice editor for the Yamaha DS55 4 Operator synthesizer.  I
wrote this, after trading my DX100 in for the new DS55, because I liked the
old DX way of programming, and was not capable of doing that on my new DS55.
   The only difference in ver 2.0 is that I have added a few new features
and fixed a couple of bugs that I found in ver. 1.0.
   The new features that I added are file requesters and a hardcopy feature.
These 2 features will make using VcEd much nicer.
   I am also distributing the full featured software this time, instead of
the demo version like I did with ver. 1.0. I am doing this because I got
very little response from the last version. The response that I did get was
mostly from over seas (Germany and Holland). The response from those people
drove me to update VcEd, mainly for them and for myself also.
   I do not expect any donations from the people that ordered ver. 1.0. I
feel that they have paid there dues as Beta Testers, and their complements
made me feel like I had written a quality peice of software (Thanks).
   I have been told that this Editor works fine with the other Yamaha DX
series, 4 OP, Yamaha keyboards.  The sound buffer and Edit buffer data
layouts are identical, and the SysEx commands are identical too. The only
parameters that I am sure will not work with the DX Synths, are the Delay
parameters. 
   I am passing the Executable only, and I am offering this program as
Shareware.  I am asking a donation of $10.00 if you use the software and a
donation of $25.00 if you wnat the source code (written in Manx 'C' Ver.
5.0d).
   The source code is fully commented and the buffer and SysEx codes are
layed out so that you can change them to fit your needs, if you prefer. You
could probably change it into an Editor for another machine pretty easy!!

   Orders for the source code, bug reports, information, complaints,
complements, etc..... can be directed to :
