Looking for a little advice…
I haven’t up to now paid much attention to the Factory groups of preset programs but it seems mine are wrong and / or corrupt.
For example 111 ‘it’s a Prophet5’ is just a single osc ‘ini’ type program on my factory 111.
214 ‘cars strings’ is a hi-res bass sound on mine. Several others are wrong or silent.
My P5 arrived with OS 1.5.2 but I’ve downloaded it and applied it again for good measure.
I’ve downloaded the factory 1.02 sysex from Sequential site and loaded them into my User groups to compare and confirm.
I’ve opened a ticket with Sequential but wondered if anyone has seen this before? My understanding was the Factory programs couldn’t be changed?
Answering my own post - thanks to Sequential for speedy support:
Turns out you CAN overwrite the Factory groups, with whatever’s currently in the User groups. Here’s how:
"You can easily copy the programs from the user locations to the factory locations using the following steps.
Hold the RELEASE button and press the 3 button.
The record button begins to blink, press the RECORD button to copy the patches from the user locations to the factory locations.
The record button light turns off indicating the process has completed".
