MIDISynth-Peak is an unofficial patch editor & librarian for the Novation Peak synthesizer.
It allows full editing of all parameters on the Peak and patches can be uploaded to/downloaded from the synth.
It’s available for macOS & Windows. Full documentation is available (.pdf).
Pricing and Availability
MIDISynth-Peak is available now for £30.00.
The synth with the most cumbersome MIDI implementation ever seen on the planet. A spaghetti mix of 8 and 16 bit CC with NRPN’s, Quite interesting is that Novation does not release the sysex implementation (even when asked) so this developer must have done some serious bit of reverse engineering. Great job. But every synth should come with full MIDI + sysex documentation and an editor something Novation failed to do for the Peak.

i worked 20 years ago with the guy who coded this – he is a pretty smart cookie.
I would like to request a mini nova editor.
This design looks clean and straight forward with sensible color coding. All things that novation’s nova editor lacks.
What is the resolution of the critical parameters such as FIlter cutoff ? Any zipper artefact when working with Peak and the editor ?
This looks good, and I just read this article, however the pricing is now 40 Pounds, not 30.
And not for nothing: I also just found this *free* Peak editor that works in Live+ Max or Live 10.
(I haven’t tested it yet… but I like the price)

Unable to open midi in… @ cubase 9.5
I hope has sales at some time during the year. $85 for it borders on too high of a price for me. It makes me pause. I am not saying it’s not a well designed product, just that the price point is fairly high.
