    Hi all -
    Hopefully someone has experienced this problem - worried it might be a little esoteric, but here it goes:

    I am trying to use microtonal tunings in the FM8.
    To do that, I am converting Scala files (scl) to SysEx files. At the moment, the only way I can see to do this conversion on MacOSX is through a web applet - if anyone knows another way, I would be very relieved to hear it.

    From there, I am using a bunch of FM8s in an Ableton file, as VST Plugins.
    I import the tuning to each instrument, one by one.. Save the Ableton file...and then, when I reopen the file again later, the tunings are flushed.

    Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

    Thanks.
