I have a free release I'm going to put out very soon but I need to get a third party to check it for me. Basically I just need to know if the files open on your computer. It's several thousand patches - so, fun stuff if you're a hoarder like me.

I have it, there shouldn't be any issue with patches. Stick a link up for it, and I'll try and get a look. Is it old DX patches?

I have it as well. Not sure if you need a check on Mac or PC? I'm on Windows 7, so if that's what you need to check it on, I'm game :)

It is old DX patches. I've tried to curate the collection I found. It started at 200k, down to 60k. Still has a lot of duplicates, but I have to move on with my life.

Windows 7 is perfect. I'm on Mac, so i need to make sure it will work for Windows.\

Here's the link.

Phew, it takes a while to check, even when only trying a couple of patches per folder!!

These three files cannot be extracted (first they try to save a 0 byte file, then the file itself, but it's not saved in the end):

Ortega Patches\Ortega7\_.nfm8
TX Patches\TX7-48B\Con.nfm8
VRC Patches\VRC-1002_SUSTAIN group_B(33-64)\Con.nfm8

The folder "BLANK2" is empty.

Duplicate folders:

- "Effects Patches/fx 2 cw" and "Effects Patches/FX CW"
- "INCONI Patches/INCONI24" and "INCONI Patches/INCONI25"
- "INCONI Patches/INCONI94" and "INCONI Patches/INCONI95"
- "Ray Patches/Ray-14" and "Ray Patches/Ray-15"
- "String Patches/Cello6" and "String Patches/cello_01"
- "String Patches/Cello5" and "String Patches/cello_02"
- "String Patches/STRING29" and "String Patches/STRING30"
- "Yamaha Patches/YAMAHA03" and "Yamaha Patches/YAMAHA04"

Triplicate folders:

"Yamaha Patches/YAM DX 202", "Yamaha Patches/YAM-22" and "Yamaha Patches/YAM-26"

There may be others but that's all I could find...

Thanks! I was just wanting to make sure the patches opened and played for others. I'll clean up the doubles and triples you found.
