A huge thank you for making the synth architecture so obvious, making community patches easily accessible, and for making it available from your browser. No doubt you've done it because you enjoyed doing it, but nonetheless - thank you for your time and effort, it is so nice of you!
Absolutely fantastic... My Pro-800 is on its way to me and I will most certainly be using this. The menu on the actual device seemed quite awful and I was not looking forward to learning it so this editor will be a complete game changer. Thanks for your work!
@@nichttuntun3364 You can edit all patch specific parameters. What you can’t edit is underlying “unit settings”, that can only be accessed through the panel or the Synthtibe app.
I did some experiments with a random button but most of the times it just ended up with the patch not being audible. 😅 I'll think about it though. Thanks!
Thanks for the editor. It only seems To work when my Pro 800 is set to MIDI Channel 1. Is there a way to change the channel on the editor so it keeps to a single midi channel?
@@JoshHyams-bh2co Right now the editor only communicates over channel 1. I’ve been planning to make this an option for quite some time but never gotten to it. In the future you’ll be able to change. Let’s say around the holidays? 👍
One more question (sorry to ask!). This might be specific to me but I am using the Meris Mercury X pedal which is lovely for synths. But when you use their editor app (PrEditor) to control the pedal and move between reverb patches the app sends constant SysEx messages on Channel 0 (even though I have the Meris set to C16). This causes continual interference with the settings on your lovely Pro800 Editor. Even though I have your editor and the Pro800 set to Channel 3 and is working great otherwise - once I have the Meris app open those SysEx messages ruin it. So I suppose my question is: is there a way to filter them out within/before the browser it runs on. I appreciate this won’t be an issue many people have!
@@JoshHyams-bh2co Unfortunately that make sense, SysEx aren't using any specific channels and are transmitted "across" all channels. I made a quick fix that might work. Let me know if this is ok and I'll update the main code. sprend.com/download?C=097ab62f5a63467fa2254b6c5ca4fa44 Also worth noting, there's no "midi channel 0" per se. Either it uses a nonstandard span of channels (0-15) or maybe the 0 might indicate something else, maybe ALL or something? Not sure.
hi This is great but how do you load files into the external banks, I can't seem to be able to do this, these are already populated in this video. Any help??
Just got the 800, and am looking at this. Thanks for your work on this - it looks well thought out, and I'm sure it was a lot of work! 2 questions: Does this interface seamlessly with all of the 3rd party sound banks for the 800? That is, does the editor automatically recognize and load the commercial sound banks? I am interested in this mainly as a librarian, not so much for editing. Also: has anyone figured out how to overwrite the factory bank A? Is that possible? Most of it is pretty lame, and there are so many interesting sound banks out there that it would be a shame to have to keep all those sounds. Thanks!
Hello! Tid works perfect with any soundbank. There’s no difference between “commercial” and own presets, they’re all just syx-files. 👍 And yes, Bank A is no different than the other banks. You can overwrite anything with anything. 👌
Hi Björn! I didn't really come here to watch the tutorial.. the tool you created is quite easy to use! Just sent you a small PayPal donation and wanted to verbally give you a big thank you for creating this thing. I have only had a Pro-800 for a couple days, but it has the latest firmware, and my Synth Tribe was fully up to date. I kept struggling with my presets not saving correctly on the unit. I believe I'm doing what I should be (hit record, then the patch number to save to), but the unit is not always saving correctly. Ex., it wouldn't save velocity parameters for some reason. It also never saved patch names. The tool you created does everything I need absolutely perfectly. Take care, my friend!!!
Hi, I've been using it for about a month now and it's a great editor. However, when used at the same time as a DAW (Studio One), if the DAW starts or stops, the tone being edited will be discarded and the currently selected program will be forcibly reloaded. This makes it difficult to use it in conjunction with a DAW while editing. Is there any workaround? MacStudio OS13.1 Chrome Studio One
Hello! I’ve never used Studio One but this is most definitely a setting inside there that resets or sends MIDI as a trigger to play/stop. I’d look in MIDI settings and see if there’s some clues to this there. Maybe, for example, Studio One MIDI recordings also contain program change CC. Best of luck and let me know how it goes.
If I can be so bold as to beg for a new(?) feature (and pardon what is probably a terrible explanation): Being able to select multiple .syx files to import in at one time, and they would import in order, starting from the selected Internal Bank+program #. It would work quite similar to importing in a multiple-program file, except a user would manually select all the individual syx files you want to import(perhaps rejecting "multi" files, if that's a challenge). It might sound redundant, but I personally have dozens of individual syx files that I haven't created multi files for yet.. and I'm not sure I really want to go through the task of importing them all in, then creating multi files for them.. plus I will probably have different configurations of the same programs in different banks, if you get what i mean, so I'd have to create a lot of different multi files. This feature would speed up work flow immensely if it is possible at all and I'd assume I'm not the only one out there that would want something like that.
Hello! I totally get what you're looking for. However, I'm thinking that maybe a separate interface in the editor for merging syx-files might be a cleaner way to do it. Then you can add multiple files, arrange them and then save a merged syx to disk. The reason being that maybe you want to merge without having to put the patches on the actual unit. But I'll think about it and see what I come up with. :)
You can select/load any number of patches here now. Press select all and then copy/move to new bank... rearrange and save. :) ruclips.net/video/c7gwzGDtIgs/видео.html
Hello! Not sure, so there's no communication between the unit and the editor except save and load? That tells me it's related you CC rather than SysEx. So my best guess is that you aren't using midi channel 1 or maybe that you've changed the Midi Settings in the unit's menu/Synthtribe app. Make sure you have both receive (Rx) and transmit (Tx) on. Let me know how it works!
Does the little black poofy guy with eyes do anything or is he just for decoration? Also the knobs aren't visible on the local version - they function but aren't visible. I'll just use the website editor if there's no fix. And thank you for making this, it will help me learn the synth better (even just seeing what waveforms are being used in each patch is helpful, and definitely being able to type in patch names!)
I would’t say this is simpler than any other vintage poly. Among other things, an editor and librarian are very helpful since many features are in menus.

@@arcaneduck unfortunately no. Even though it’s saved in the preset it can’t be accessed via CC.
Is this using usb connection or the midi connection?? Just unboxed mine and this amazing to access the synth much easier
You can use either. It's designed for USB but works with midi too.

Why have an editor for such a simple synth?
I would’t say this is simpler than any other vintage poly. Among other things, an editor and librarian are very helpful since many features are in menus.
To make an easier and faster workflow by eliminating menu diving with a single button press.
I mean you're always free to do it on the unit if you prefer it...
