YEM update 2.8.0

[Stijn]

There's a new YEM update for Windows and Mac

V2.7.0 to V2.8.0
Now supports the PSR-A5000.
Expanded Drum Keys to 128 for keyboards that support 128-note Drum kits.
Now supports upgraded Mono/Portamento for the keyboards that support those functions.
Solved some other minor problems.

I noticed that version 2.8 is slower than 2.7.
It takes longer to switch from My Packs to the Instrument (the green bar below Save as pack file..)

And... some of the voices in the pack 'Genos ver 2.0 Superior Pack" were switched off;  MellowTrombone, PaneFluteLatin, PanFluteBallad, FemaleBallad and FemaleClassic.

After re-installing ver 2.7.0 the voices were activated again.

Not loading voices in YEM v2.8 (Windows)
once more closely examined.
With this I have to support Stijn in his perception.
Thank you Stijn for the report.

YEM 2.8 Windows
after preparation Pack Install there are 5 voices
from the "Genos ver2.0 Superior Pack" that will not be loaded, namely:
MellowTrombone. + PanFluteLatin + PanFluteBallad + FemaleBallad
+ FemalleClassic.

When the cursor is placed on these voices, the message appears:
"This content cannot be installed on the selected instrument".
(this in a Pack for Genos!?)
These voices cannot be selected either.
Shutting down and restarting YEM does not change this.

The preparation of "Pack Install" takes about 3'30 ",
this takes longer than in version 2.7.
(green moving bar under "Save as Pack Install)

The "Pack Install File Size" = 3108 MB.
(without the 5 voices that are not loaded)

It takes about 6' to create a "CPI" (Full Install) file.
The size is 2980 MB.


YEM 2.7 Windows
after preparation Pack Install there are 5 voices
from the "Genos ver2.0 Superior Pack" that will not be loaded, namely:
MellowTrombone. + PanFluteLatin + PanFluteBallad + FemaleBallad
+ FemalleClassic.
The error message as in v2.8 does not appear here.
These voices can still be selected manually.
After closing and restarting YEM 2.7, this no longer occurs
and everything will be loaded automatically.

The preparation of "Pack Install" takes about 2',
this is faster than in version 2.8.
(green moving bar under "Save as Pack Install)

The "Pack Install File Size" = 3096 MB.

It takes about 6' to create a "CPI" (Full Install) file.
The size is 3020 MB.

Control "Superior Pack" in Genos, made with YEM 2.7:
all voices, including the non-loadable in YEM v2.8, work in Genos.


Conclusion:

Apparently there is something wrong with YEM v2.8 (Windows) because of. the voices
that are not loaded but in the previous versions,
although these will work in Genos loaded with v2.7.
These voices are still part of a Pack for Genos!
There is a difference in Pack preparation time, almost twice as much
longer in v2.8 than in v2.7.
Things that do not work at first, then do after restart YEM (v2.7)
suggest that YEM is not of the most stable progr.
