Well, I want to reinstall the system, but can't find out where all the new modules added to library are located. Any tips?

XP: Documents and Settings. Just open search and type word synthmaker; will find some folders and in one of them are your modules.

can't find

Just open search

Thanks.

Certainly there are SOME modules in ProgramFiles\Outsim\Synthmaker\modules\ folder, but most of them come with original SM and the dozens (hundreds) of new modules are not listed by name. I'm asking about the missing ones.

Either I don't understand or I don't understand. If you install SM - you will get all SM modules back, no matter where they are placed. Other modules, added to the toolbox by user (no matter to which cattegory assigned - default or your own) - they are stored in Documents and Settings.

If you haven't figured it out yet, in windows7: c:\\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\SynthMaker\Modules\

I'm sure it's somewhere similar in XP.

Mind you, "AppData" is a hidden folder by default, so you might need to set your explorer properties to "show hidden files".

Here again a .bat file i use to backup to Stick E:

Change oldest file start date D:01-01-2011

accordingly

@echo off title Synthmaker backup Batchprocessor by W. Sommerfeld

cls @echo. @echo. @echo Synthmaker started!

call SynthMaker.exe %1 REM ============================ cls @echo on

XCOPY "%ProgramFiles%\Outsim\SynthMaker\OSM\*.*" "E:\_OUTSIM Synthmaker\Osm\" /M /D:01-01-2011 /S /Y

XCOPY "%ProgramFiles%\Outsim\SynthMaker\Modules\User\*.*" "E:\_OUTSIM Synthmaker\Modules\User\" /M /D:01-01-2011 /S /Y

XCOPY "%appdata%\SynthMaker\Modules\User\*.*" "E:\_OUTSIM Synthmaker\Modules\User\" /M /D:01-01-2011 /S /Y XCOPY "%appdata%\SynthMaker\Recovery\*.*" "E:\_OUTSIM Synthmaker\Recovery\" /M /D:01-01-2011 /S /Y

save like "backup_OSM+MOD.bat" and send it to desktop (create shortcut) and change it's icon... now u can drag an osm on that Desktop icon... It will start ur osm and make a backup of changed/added files to stick E: or ur Harddisk X: after u exit SM 😉

btw:this Batch file also works with the German Windows Version

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
