Renaming patches, is it possible
« on: June 30, 2018, 02:14:20 PM »
I mainly start with an Init patch from scratch, "Basic Program", but I would sometimes like to rename my patches to something else for recalling which is which. This was possible on the original Prophet '08, but I can't seem to find a way on the Rev2. I made a patch editor for the P'08 with TB Midi Stuff for iPad, with which I could also name patches, unfortunately this doesn't work with the Rev2. Has anyone found a way to name/rename patches on the Rev2?

Yes, using the Write Over method, where you'd recall a patch that you want to rename, press the Write button, proceed to change it's name displayed on the OLED screen using the Parameter and Values knobs (one letter at a time) and then proceed to  overwrite the previously saved one by pressing the Write button one last time.

Ah great! I don't know how I'd missed that. Thanks a lot!
