HI,
I HAVE RECENTLY OBTAINED A YAMAHA MAGICSTOMP WITH EFTP PROGRAMMED WHICH I LOVE BUT I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO DOWNLOAD THE DRIVERS TO BE ABLE TO EDIT OTHER PATCHES. NOT BEING PARTICULARLY COMPUTER SAVVY CAN ANYONE IN THE SOUTHWEST HELP. I LIVE IN YEOVIL AND MY LAPTOP IS AN APPLE MACBOOK I WOULD APPRECIATE SOME TUITION IF POSSIBLE.
CHEERS, ALEX

Hi Alex
Regrettably drivers for the Mac are now obsolete, I know the old drivers will work on a PC with at least some versions of Windows OS. You will also need a compatible MIDI interface.

Hi Alex, The original driver (supplied on the MagicStomp disk and widely distributed around the Net) never worked properly. A more up to date USB/MIDI driver for each operating system, including MAC OS, is available from the Yamaha site: download.yamaha.com/usb_midi/index.html. Please look at Post7 in this thread charliehall.proboards.com/thread/11709 where everything is explained. Whenever you install newer software (such as Sound Editor V2.1) on your PC, the installer program will keep asking you to install the old drivers. Just ignore it and persist with the new driver. You will need to install Sound Editor V2.1 and "double initialise" the new driver with the MagicStomp plugged in to the USB port and powered up. Regards DaveC |

Hi Dave/Alex
Sorry, I did install the latest MagicStomp drivers at time (from memory I believe they were the latest ones listed), but couldn't get the "Sound Editor" to start installation, so it didn't get as far as asking for old drivers!
My apologies for causing any confusion, I should have said "Sound Editor" (not drivers), I hope Dave's solution will get you past this!
