Brought my MU10 back to life!

For many years, my venerable Yamaha MU10 has been hobbled by my lack of knowledge that its XG tones and functions can be accessed and controlled without its proprietary host cable. In fact, they can be controlled via a standard MIDI cable, so I set up XGworks 3.0, which runs fine on Windows 10 and has preset configurations for each XG synth. Selecting the XG tones and editing the XG parameters of my MU10 via USB through my almost-as-ancient M-Audio Radium 61, XGworks has unleashed the full power of this still-impressive unassuming little beige box.
