1. Hints to soundsets GSSBK320.TTS and DRUMKITS.TTS

The EWS64 installation CD includes the 32 MBit (4 MB) GS soundset GSSBK320.94b with 128 GM instruments, 225 sound variations, 9 drum kits and a SFX kit, useful to playback GM or GS compatible MIDI files.
This soundset has several disadvantages: For these reasons I've developed a TTS version of this soundset, which doesn't has the mentioned disadvantages, the GSSB320.TTS. While converting to TTS format, one instrument ("Wind Bell"; Prg. 101/Bank 127) and all drum kits went lost. So I created an additional soundset, the DRUMKITS.TTS, which includes nearly all drum kits and the SFX set of the GSSBK320.94b except of the "CM-64/32 Kit".

Notes:
1. Both soundsets must be loaded simultaneously with Setmanager or Ed!son, if you want to playback GM or GS MIDI files.
2. In Ed!son all instrument names appear in full length in the instrument list.
3. Loaded with Setmanager, you can find all program and bank numbers in my PDF-Documentation.
4. User of Cubase VST 5 or SX can use my Patchname script file to simply access all instruments and Drum kits.

3. Hints to Setmanager v2.1/3.12/3.15

While using Setmanager v3.12 or v3.15 on Windows 98 systems to load DRUMKITS.TTS, only the Standard Drum kit will be available! Therefore you should prefer the older Setmanager v2.1 - loaded with this version, all Drum kits will be available at Channel 10 under their particular Program number.
Setmanager v2.1 is included in the EWS64 Windows-9x software packages (file EWS64_App_w9x_D.exe for L/XL/XXL models and file EWS64S_App_w9x_B.exe for S models.
Note:
Under Windows 2000/XP Setmanager v3.15 works fine without the mentioned problem.

4. Important hint to Ed!son

Before running Ed!son, you first must (!) delete all currently loaded soundsets with the Setmanager!
If you don't do this, Ed!son won't work correctly. After loading an TTI-instrument or TTS-soundset in Ed!son, you can (re)load other soundsets with the Setmanager without getting errors in Ed!son.

5. Cubase Patchname script file for GSSBK320.TTS/DRUMKITS.TTS

At my pages The EWS64 under Cubase you can find at sub-page 'Scriptfile GSSBK320' a Patchname script file for GSSB320.TTS/DRUMKITS.TTS, which provides in Cubase 5 or SX easy access by name to all the available instruments and drum kits of both soundsets.
Additionally this script file offers easy access to all program numbers of banks 10-15 (=Var. 11-16 in Ed!son), useful for own soundsets loaded by Ed!son or Setmanager.
