cosmosuave Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Looking to dl some v2 patches in order to get an idea what this box can do... Any sites or thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyutaeha Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_sid/preset_patches_20060820.ziphere ya go.However these won't work with v2 so you have to convert them. If you look in the "tools" folder in the "midibox_sid_v2_0_rc17", or similarly named, folder you'll find a v1_to_v2.pl file. You can use that script to convert these patches to v2 and upload. Outside of the vintage presets found in the preset folder, the link up above has the only other presets I've found around here.Good luck figuring out how to use that pearl script. I was going to figure it out soon as my order gets in from Smash(bless his awesome little heart) and fix my ridiculous DIN problem.Hope this helped.

cosmosuave Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Thanks I'll give it a go... Don't know much about scripting... If it is anything like compiling .asm files then I should be ok... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 V2 patches are included in the .zip file of the V2 firmware, in the "presets" directory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmosuave Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 V2 patches are included in the .zip file of the V2 firmware, in the "presets" directory.My bad never saw it... I was too eager to get the SID up and running... Will go back to the folder... Can the LFO's sync to midi clock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmosuave Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Okay I'm stupid... I cannot get the syx patch file to load to the SID... I try'd Jsynth Librarian and have no clue on how to use it.... Setup the config on Midi-OX did a lpbk test to ensure I had the correct midi ports... Opened the SYSEX CMD window loaded the file and sent... The window shows all sorts of hex#'s and completes the file upload... When auditioning the SIDbox nothing... Do I need to config the the SIDbox for sys rx?I have no clue with sysex since all I have used for synths have been pre midi analogue...

cosmosuave Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Sorted feel like an idiot.... Midi cables reversed and I decided to unplug the midi out cable of the SIDbox so the cable is as follows... Used Midi-OX... FW410 midi out----->SIDbox midi inNow I have to get the baby up from his nap will have to check later.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyutaeha Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 whoa, whoa, I think you're making things more complicated than they really are. ;)This should make it more simple, it's on the downloads page:http://www.ucapps.de/howto_tools_syxloader_18f.htmlIt's a really easy to use sysex loader and the vintage presets from the presets folder can be sent to your bank, no problem. Just open up the vintage patch file through this loader program and send.Outside of the vintage presets found in the preset folder, the link up above has the only other presets I've found around here.I assumed maybe you were wanting more presets than than the vintage presets.I try'd Jsynth Librarian and have no clue on how to use it....Yea me too. If you're just wanting to load up those vintage patches the sysex loader is the easiest route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 JSynth librarian does not work for MB-SID V2.Upload the .syx file with your favourite MIDI utility (i.e. MidiOx) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmosuave Posted March 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 Patches are loaded only 64... Gonna have to get a larger bankstick... Is there anyway of splitting the syx file in 1/2 so that I have 2x64 patch's? Impressed by some of the patch's and the sound of the SIDbox... Two years ago I thought of taking on this project but wrote it off as that 8 bit video game sound but you can get some very warm analogue sounds out of it and a bit of verb makes it even more lush...

cyutaeha Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 JSynth librarian does not work for MB-SID V2.Man, no wonder it was giving me such a hard time. Has Thorsten said anything about plans to update the JSynth driver or anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nILS Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 rutgerv is working on a new patch editor. See http://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,9457.0.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
