Deleting songs with Yamaha Registration Manager

[dragon]

I have the latest update of YRM.  Thanks for keeping the program so current. I would like to delete ALL the songs in my registration sets but cannot find a way to batch delete. So far I have only found that I can lose the link to stop them working, and that is on individual regs. Is there a way to do this that I haven't found?
The reason is that I use V-console with the Genos and if there is a midi in the song area then all the V-console sounds turn to a piano sound. Thanks in anticipation of an answer

Hi Carol,

You can do this as described in the section 'Addition or Removal of Groups, File Name Copy and Assign OTS' on page 30 of the YRM Manual.

Note that you must not have a registration bank loaded in the program for this function, so either start immediately after opening the program without loading a bank, or press the 'Clear All Registration Buttons' button if you already have a bank loaded.

Then if you press the 'Duplicate / Remove Bank Settings' button to start the process, you will be able to set the function up to remove the 'Song' group parameters from every bank in a specified directory (folder).

The program will ask you for the folder that you want to process and you will get the opportunity to specify the folder that the modified banks will be written to.

If you check the 'Auto Name Target Directory' button at the bottom left of the display, the program will create a new folder named as the original with 'Modified' added to the end, and the modified files will automatically be saved to it.
