Old MIDI synths?
You might be dating yourself with that comment!
adam west of family guy?
Yeah, i might do that. Then what? (Not trying to be sarky).
Finally a good patch librarian or so I thought. But it’s a cloud-based service. No, you’re not getting my patches, no I’m not paying you $20 a year.
I don’t understand why everything has to go subscription- and cloud-based. Just give me a good client, let me choose my own cloud service or ftp for collaborations and be done with it.
this (!)
Wait, its cloud-based renewable fee service? For synths of a pre-internet world. Forget it. Keep synths on a closed network for best results. Modern-network integration (and cloud-based) is not good when you want to jam, record, or perform and have to deal with updates. I prefer closed network so cloud-based is worst option and subscription service is a no.
But I think it would be cool if a more prominent repository of vetted sysex patches existed. I would just prefer to download, save and transfer with MIDI-OX. Easy.
lots of old MIDI synths in the list :-))))
LASER Mammoth is not from Gezeiten Modular but from Numerisch. They also do the ModularGrid Eurorack Planner.

Cloud / Subscription-based? Who the hell did they build this for?
What a stupid idea.
EDIT: The GUI / branding are so cringe. Ugh
intellijel Rainmaker? Is newer than new
Okay, where’s the Korg Poly-800…?
