Greetings - I've transferred two .nfm8 files (one .nfm8 & one imported from Syx and saved as a .nfm8) into my Maschine+. They both show up on the Maschine+ screen (user). The file that is originally .nfm8 works in Maschine+. But the .nfm8 patch that had to first be imported from a SYX FILE, that patch (and all others - .kds imports for example) don't work in Maschine+ (theyve been saved as .nfm8 files before transferring). They work on my laptop software FM8, but not when I transfer them over to Maschine+. I get an "FM8 could not be loaded". Only the nfm8 files that did not have to be imported from ksd or syx files, work. Weird. I repeated this - transferred fnm8 patches I created myself or downloaded - they work fine. But anytime I use a patch that was imported from a Sysexor kds file - nope. They don't transfer to Maschne+. Thanks

    @Antonio B What version of FM8 are you using on your desktop? Are you using the VST2 version or VST3? VST3 is not yet supported on M+ so that could be the issue here.

    Hey, thanks for the reply. Check above discussion. It has to be something with importing sysex & kds files into FM8(which then converts them to nfm8 files when saved) because all other patches nfm8 patches I create on the computer software, transfer.

    Sorry for the confusion. For some reason I thought I had deleted this one. I contacted support - hopefully, they can figure it out. If not, I'll just not bother with patches that need to be imported from Sysex and kds files. I was just bummed because a few of the patches I edited turned out really nice and I wanted to use them in standalone mode on Maschnine+. Thanks for the input :)

    @ozon Thanks for the heads up.

    @Antonio B No worries, I'll close this thread and leave the other one active, hopefully my colleagues get to the bottom of it and you'll be able to share the solution in the other thread!
