Yeah. However, I'd *love* to convince *these* dudes to come on board:

or... at least let us bring their editor in.

Right. There's usually a way to send a whole patch at a time (for 
getting/sending banks and patches), and the senders are for when you 
fiddle with GUI widgets in real-time.

First step is to write a driver that can receive and recognize the 
patches dumped from the S80.
Next, make it so that JSL can request those patches.
Next, unpack whatever 7-bit encoding their using, if any
Next, start working on an editor without real-time senders
Last, add in the senders.
