v2 Patches question

[lewisfrancis]

Am I correct in assuming the Set 2 Banks 9-16 FACTORY and Set 2 Banks 9-16 USER banks are identical?

So if I want to preserve my user patches in the lower banks then just uploading the Set 2 Banks 9-16 FACTORY should give me the new patches w/o erasing whatever currently exists in the User banks?

Yes, that is correct!

Hi,
I just updated my Take5. The update runs correctly. But after turning the synth off an on after the installation (that was finished as the screen displayed I had to do it), I notice that the news banks are emply (all showing : BasicP#).
What should I do to access the new sounds ? Should I run the update again ?

Thanks for your help.

Best,

S.

The new sounds/programs are hidden here: https://www.sequential.com/download-take-5-sound-banks/

Thanks for the quick feedback !
Yes I've seen this in the meantime.
BUT, I send the Take5_Main_2.0.0.0.syx and waited the synth to finish the installation.
Turning off and on again : the new banks are still empty ! OS is being updated to 2.0.0.

Any help ?

The new sounds aren't automatically installed with the new OS. You have to "install" them afterwards/separately by sending the corresponding sysex file (https://davesmith.wpenginepowered.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Take5-Factory-Programs-Set2.zip)

Fantastic ! Many thanks.
Worked perfectly. Was not handling the right files...

Have a great day !

Do you need to load both patch banks to get all the sounds?

No, you should load only one of them. They’re exactly the same patches but one of them installs in factory banks 9-16 whereas the other one installs in user banks 9-16.

I only installed Set 2 but I still have blank patches in some locations. Update: Ok, I think I got all the patches in factory banks. I believe it just left a few init patches in user banks, but that is ok as those could be foundations for my own sounds. I think I got them all now.

Man, did the update do something with the output levels in a good way? Either that, or new patches, this thing sounds great! Huge sounding.
