Bluewave presets only partially loading

Bluewave presets only partially loading
« on: September 12, 2021, 12:53:22 AM »
Greets on the Board, new here and new to the spectacular PX. Got a loading issue with the BlueWave pack, the samples have transferred fine but the BlueWave presets fill U4 only as far as P36, then P37 is 12 Stringed Warmth and the factory bank continues to P128. I've tried loading many times via MIDI and USB (sending from SysEx Librarian, latest vs) but no joy. Any guidance would be a huge plus. (I'm on OS Catalina.)

Presets are transferred by sysex from your computer and the PX is pretty slow when it comes to receiving sysex stuff. Try cutting your transfer speed in half and see if that works. Others have had very similar problems.

That's both good and bad news. The bad: tried that half-speed routine already and it hasn't helped. The good: seems from what you're saying that my machine is not uniquely flawed in some way as I was beginning to suspect ;-)) If others are going through the same hoops then I'm happy. No, seriously, that is disheartening news. Why should the PX be so slow in this respect?

I'll try an even slower transfer and report back.

There's a pc in the PX that is likely at least a generation old and not as fast a newer machines. I found that when I put a 32Gb data stick in it took about 30 seconds or more to be recognised whereas on my iMac it only takes about 5 seconds. I can't say why the pc is so slow except to guess that Dave and his engineers wanted to use the most reliable motherboard that the could find and sometimes this means using older hardware. Let us know how you get on.

I'm having the same problem. My Prophet X is directly connected to my MacOS 11.6 MacBook Pro 16". I installed the samples, no problem. Setting Sysex Librarian to its slowest transfer speed of 1%, I can only install 82 of the 128 programs. Faster speeds transferred even less. Any suggestions how to get all the programs to install?

Hi,

Have you updated to the latest OS for the PX? It has resolved a lot of MIDI SYSEX issues (well for me, anyway)
Regards
Derek

I had this problem and downloaded the midi sysex tranfer utility from the microsoft store and it resolved it.  I know thats not helpful since you are on Mac, but its something with the speed or something.  I couldnt get midiox to transfer.  it would either partially transfer or give me a memory error.

Per Goldbaby's advice, I connected via DIN, used the slowest transfer speed, and it worked. Even a transfer speed of 10% left many holes. I had to set the speed to 1%, and wait more than 4 hours.
