General Discussion / Availability of shared NWCITREES
I've put this in the general Discussion Area as the "Itrees" thread seems a bit neglected recently.
I know NWC is primarily for notation, but I find it so nice I try to use it as a sequencer.
I've just acquired a Yamaha S900, and have been trying to write a custom nwcitree for it.
I'm doing it in instalments, piano, then guitar etc, but I'm already finding that some of the voices I've carefully coded fail to produce the correct sound, and as there are over 600 sounds available, I don't want to carry on making the mistakes I've made so far.
I'm puzzled as to why there are so few itrees available in the Scriptorium.
Surely whenever some user creates one, this is the obvious place to share it?
HAS ANYONE GOT A WORKING ITREE FOR A YAMAHA S900 or similar.

I must add my thanks to all those who have posted their itrees. They're an invaluable guide for an itree novice. THANK YOU ALL.

Instrument Trees / Help "Invalid Tree" Message in using "predefined Instruments"
I'm trying to make my NWC files use the Sound banks of a Yamaha S900, and have tried just putting a couple of  Yamaha NWCitree  file into the itrees folder , just to see what would be displayed when I pressed the "Predefined instruments" box in Staff Properties/ Instruments.
I just generated a message "Invalid Tree".

Even though I've now moved the offending itree files, and the folder just has the original four files, I still get the message, and any patch, MSB and LSB info are reset to zero. Needless to say, I'm not accessing the sounds I'm aiming for.
Is there any way of restoring the purity of the itrees folder?
Any advice would be much
appreciated -
