Title: The KnobKraft Orm free sysex librarian now supporting the Take 5!
Post by: kris on October 10, 2021, 04:51:01 AM
With the help of the community and my generic sequential module, I am pleased to announced that the latest release of the KnobKraft Orm now also supports the Take 5. I couldn't test it, as I don't have one and there were not even any factory patches to download yet when I implemented it, but a friendly sould on github gave me the name index I needed.

Please take it to a test drive and let me know if it works or not. It should have all features the KnobKraft Orm has for all other synths!

Here is the link for the download for Mac and Windows, Linux folks please compile yourself as you're used to ;)

If someone provides SysEx dumps from the Take 5, I can also take a look. I do not yet have access to one.

Wow, this is very cool and helpful! THANKS!
I've tried it so far and everything works fine: import of single banks and all banks, editing patch names, saving patches as a data base on the PC, export as sysex files ...

Is there somewhere an "operational manual" for this tool? I would be interested in functions like:
- how to copy/swap patches on the Library screen (if possible)
- how to send patches to the Take 5.

Thanks in advance!

I try to keep it simple, but have so far only gotten around to the initial video. I definitely need to do a few more tutorials.
Copy/swapping is not yet possible, as the Library is really just a search result in the database of all patches, it cannot do classical bank management yet. Sending patches to the synth is implemented - when it is detected properly (green bar under the synth name at the top of the screen), clicking a patch in the grid sends it into the edit buffer. It does not yet allow to overwrite patch memory, due to missing bank management ;-)

I'm working on a version that has started to get lists of patches, and drag and drop to move patches around in lists. This could evolve into full bank management, but I guess winter needs to start properly for me to find time to work more on that!

Again, thank you for the feedback, noted and appreciated!

Thanks a lot for your feedback! It helps and it confirms that everything works the way it should and I understand how it works.
To be able to manage sounds and names outside the synth (and without midiox) is already a big help. But I’m of course looking forward to further developments of the software. Thanks again!
