Hi Toby and all
I took the librity in taking your single patch MIDI files and created
SysEx banks out of them.
Basically I used two ( Atari) computers. Loaded up a sequencer on my
Falcon ( Sweet 16) which loaded up the MIDI file containing the
single patch ( available on your site) Then had XOR ( same as Unisyn)
loaded up on my TT030. Selected the GET PATCH command in XOR, then
hit PLAY on the sequencer. The patch goes to XOR's edit buffer. Then
simply dragged over the patch to a location in a new bank. They made
two banks of 32 sounds. Then used a utility called "dx-convert" that
converted the TX& Xor bank to standard Sysex. I also used a utility (
by the same programmer) that made a list of all the sounds in the
banks. Quite handy. A good use of a morning:-)
Some of the sounds are probably your "fav" sounds, as I recogized
several of the patches, while others were tweaks, like your Toby solo
patch. Excellent!
Thanks for making these available.Feel free to have this bank format
on your site as well.
