OB-6 / Re: Using Soundtower app to edit sequences
« Last post by Manbird on Today at 10:05:01 AM »
It sounds like you're encountering a frustrating challenge with the Soundtower editor for the OB-6 sequencer while trying to save changes back to the hardware. Though I haven't personally used this editor, troubleshooting MIDI communication issues is akin to debugging in an android game development scenario.

First, ensure that both your OB-6 synthesizer and the Soundtower editor are updated to their latest firmware versions. Just like in game development, outdated software versions can lead to compatibility issues that need patching.

Next, scrutinize your MIDI connections between the editor and the OB-6, making sure they're properly configured for seamless communication. In an Android game, debugging network or API connections is crucial for smooth gameplay; likewise, MIDI connections must be error-free.

When saving sequencer data from the editor back to the OB-6, ensure you're following the correct procedure, akin to saving progress in a game. Sometimes, a specific sequence of actions or button presses is necessary to finalize changes and update the hardware.

Consider backing up the entire patch from the OB-6 using the editor before making changes, similar to saving game progress before attempting a risky maneuver. This backup can serve as a safety net, allowing you to restore the original settings if needed.

As you await a response from Soundtower support, continue exploring other avenues for troubleshooting, similar to seeking advice from fellow gamers in online forums. Collaboration and shared experiences often yield creative solutions, much like in the gaming community.

By treating this challenge like debugging in an Android game development scenario, you can systematically address the issue and hopefully achieve a resolution that restores harmony between your OB-6 and the Soundtower editor.

I've seen a number of these popping up on the forum in the last week or so. And I say this as an actual human being, I think!

Anything to take the guess out of it would be appreciated, i.e.    "Yes, Possible future update" ,  No updates foreseen"

Pro 3 / Re: Pro 3, firmware OS.. requests.. improvements.. incoming :-)

^^^^^^ haha beat mea to it!

Anyway, reading back through this thread, it highlights some serious issues for a lot of owners. Also, all of the suggestion are really thoughtful and incredibly inspiring and really appreciate the participation in this thread for the whole community.

I don’t know where the Sequential firmware staff currently stand after the takeover by Focusrite but one would hope the Pro3 is going to receive plenty of firmware updates :fingers crossed:

1.2.0.7 is out guys, just a small bug fix the notes say, please post your findings and issues here, will update mine after work later today.

Where can this be downloaded? The latest listed on the support page is 1.2.0.4.

I am having a bizarre problem with my SE being one step off when played via MIDI at random times; just figured I'd install the latest to see if that exorcizes the demon.

It’s right at the top of the forum pinned posts, I’ve copied the link below.

Take 5 / Re: Owning both the Take 5 and the Prophet 6? Too much overlap?
« Last post by ibiza on Yesterday at 08:41:51 PM »
You might also ask over in the P6 forum if you haven't already. I've not played or heard a Prophet 6 so have nothing to add other than a recollection that some people here felt the T5 had a larger sweet spot, but double-check that because it may have been in reference to the Rev 2 and not the P6. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It might also help if you could describe your use-case -- I guess one reason to buy might be because you want to gig w/o taking a ton of gear.

Hi Francis,

Good idea. I will try to post over the Prophet 6 forums and see if someone is actively using both. I’m planning to use the T5 in the studio, so it’s just to add a different color to my sound palette.

Take 5 / Re: Owning both the Take 5 and the Prophet 6? Too much overlap?

Hi All,

This is my very first post on this forum!

So, here is the deal; I have the chance to buy a near-perfect Take 5 for a VERY reasonable price. The thing is, I already own a P6 (which I love). Does it make sense to own both synths? Or maybe there is too much overlap? Are the OSC and the filter, etc the same?

For context I own the following; P6/OB6, Subsequent 37, Analog Four MK2 and the Novation Peak.

I’d love to hear your thoughts!

PS: I have to give the shop an answer by Monday;)

I am sure lots of people will say go for it, they are different synths etc.

My advice would be, do you really need another polysynth? You already have a P6, OB6, A4, Peak.. Would you be better off spending the cash on something else - effects, compressors, outboard etc? If the motivation for it comes from the fact there’s a good deal to be had alone that perhaps answers the question. Having said that, if it is a truly great deal you can always sell it on at some point if you’re not using it - up to you of course! But I would definitely think about if you really need that over something else before making the call.

Just my opinion, and whatever way you decide good luck and enjoy!

Hi Ray,

That’s a valid point. As you pointed out, I don’t “need” another poly. But it’s hard to say no to 500$ off for what essentially is near brand new unit:D

With that said, I don’t want to buy it if it sounds to close to my P6… Hence my question.

General / Re: About the 15v psu
« Last post by fertileflavor on Yesterday at 06:40:45 PM »
Yes, the 15V power supply listed on the site for the Tempest should work with both 240-220AC volts and 120-110 volts. However, it's always a good idea to double-check the specifications or contact the manufacturer to ensure compatibility with your specific electrical system.

Despite the fact that the desktops won't fit in a typical rack, I prefer their broader dimensions.
