Sysexy MIDI Librarian is a data dump utility for musicians and studio producers. A librarian program allows you to do "sysex dumps" to and from synthesizers, drum machines, effects processors, etc., and archive the data on a computer, containing sounds, configuration settings, sequences which can later be sent back to the originating equipment. This allows a computer to be used as data storage for musical instruments and studio gear.
Features
- Gear attribute database, to teach Sysexy to talk to odd machines.
- Still talks to gear not in database as "generic."
- Config file stores per synth settings for port, channel, preferred transmit speed, verify retries, etc.
- Recognizes dumps from known synths by size and header, regardless of filename on disk.
- Per synth setting for verify retries, for individual synths you may have unreliable communications with. Sysexy can try very hard to send and receive dumps without corruption.
- "Pseudobank" feature for synths that don't have a bank dump feature...to make them dump whole patch banks anyway.
- GUI gear database editor, so you can enter sysex attributes for gear Sysexy doesn't ship with support for without editing config files.
- Handling of various ad hoc extensions that MIDI gear manufacturers have concocted -- embedded MIDI channels inside the dump, embedded patch/program numbers, even CC commands prefixed before the dump. Now you can do sysex dumps from that piece of gear you have that won't talk to anything that wasn't taylor made for it.
