I own a Montage v2.5 and I'm looking at also purchasing the Modx as both a backup and local live gig keyboard. Can I write and transfer my created User sounds and samples and libraries from the Montage to the Modx? Are their architectures in soundsets the same or are they incompatible in this aspect. I'm aware of the limited memory in the Modx.
Specifically, i want to
-Write USER sounds using presets and SR created samples in the Montage.
-Transfer them to the Modx via USB for live use.
Any information or resource would be most helpful before I attempt to purchase the Modx.
Thank you

MODX can read Montage formats. Montage cannot read MODX formats directly. Therefore, what you want - to transfer from Montage to MODX - is supported.
