Wow, that file-manager is a great new feature which makes it a lot easier to select presets. Thanks!

 

Amaaaaazing!

few notes:
- removing an added folder crashes ableton 12, win11
- it would be nice if we could remove the documents and download folders
- it would be great to have the option to load patches on browsing with keyb arrow keys instead of a mouse click
- could we get a make new user bank in the browser with drag&drop?
- how come loading a single patch takes longer than a whole bank?
- how about subfolders? maybe people have different folders and just want to load the root and have the browser lay that out, similar to the TUS system

Thanks so much for your work. This thing is shaping up nicely

"removing an added folder crashes ableton 12, win11"
Yeah, that's sucks. The fix is on its way.
"how come loading a single patch takes longer than a whole bank?"
Both inject directly to memory, but with the "write single program", you have to do some tweaking first to make it write to INT RAM.
"could we get a make new user bank in the browser with drag&drop?"
Most DAWs have issues with drag-and-drop, so I'd skip that.
"how about subfolders? maybe people have different folders and just want to load the root and have the browser lay that out, similar to the TUS system" and "it would be nice if we could remove the documents and download folders" and "it would be great to have the option to load patches on browsing with keyb arrow keys instead of a mouse click"
Maybe we'll check these out.

 

Many thanks from an AVX1 user!

 

Thanks for all the new features, this is a super fun and inspiring instrument.

I noticed that this new version v1.0.0 does not load the .sysx files that were working in v0.9.9 yesterday.
The import button has obviously changed to the Preset/File Manager button and now the warning about Midi Cntrl does not pop up. I do have the parameter set to sysx on, but the file browser says "Invalid or empty .SYX" when I try to load anything.
I managed to find a collection of about 5000 patches and under v0.9.9 they were working as expected. Is there another setting I am missing?
I am on a Mac Studio 15.7.4 in Logic.
Thank you again.

 

"There's no need to switch the SYS-EX in menu from now on as it's always enabled at boot." You should NOT switch sys-ex from menu.
There's no need to load anything via the SD-1 menu. Fire up the the "preset/file manager", browse your folders, select the syx file and import the bank with "Import full bank" or import single program with "Write single program". We have tested the plugin with tons of syx files. There are a few corrupted SYX dumps, but even the SD-1 hardware wouldn't accept them.
If you say it doesn't load any SYX files, then there must be something wrong on your end.

 

Thank you. I was doing it wrong. I appreciate your help.
