Title: Preset Alternative Tuning sysex - Naming
Post by: OakBloodThree on March 19, 2019, 08:21:54 AM

You may have noticed that the alternative tunings preloaded at the factory (and available for download here (https://www.sequential.com/prophet-rev2-factory-sounds/)) have cryptic names on the Rev2 display, apparently limited to 8 characters, which turns out to be totally unnecessary: The MTS sysex specification allows for 16-character names, and the Rev2 is capable of displaying them fully.

Here's an updated sysex, edited with names that are more human-readable. Comments or suggested improvements welcome.

PS: More to come on support for alternative tunings on the Rev2.
