Re[2]: [elektron] Software tools for the MD

2002-07-06 by Adam Watson

I have created a preliminary adaptation for SoundDiver to handle
Global data, Kits, Patterns, and Song dumps...  however, due to the
way the the MD currently handles patch dumps / receives via SysEx,
it would be very difficult to create an editor that is flexible enough
to satisfy most user needs.

I have written Elektron about this, and hopefully we will see some
changes in the SysEx implementation so that a more robust adaptation
or standalone editor/librarian can be made.
