Yes, one ram bank contains three dumps - eg for Ram1, there will be a dump for Ram1 Performances, one for Ram1 Patches, and Ram1 Wave sequences.

Try slowing the transmission down. Also try having pauses between each bank chunk (eg send the Performance bank, wait, then send the Patch bank, wait, then send the Wave Sequence bank etc.).

With Korg stuff of this era, the OS is usually not updatable directly on the chips - you usually exchanged or got new chips, and just swapped the chips into the sockets. That's how eg I upgraded my Wavestation from V2.x to V3.x back in the day. I suspect the bin files you've got are just images of t...

For me, not really. The prices of the vintage classics have long since outweighed their musical utility, to me. Over a thousand pounds for an SH101..? Sheesh!

Synthchaser? From Synthchaser.com?

I really enjoy your YouTube channel - thanks for doing that.

Looks more like a telephone, to me...

It seems there's no shortage of complexity with these kinds of tools, but what we really lack is some kind of sensible control mechanism to make sense of them. Do to madtheory's interest in the Cyclone I took a look at it's various features to see what it does and to consider implementing some softw...

Also, there are a few on ebay, but none with manuals, unfortunately.

It's worth keeping an eye on there, and if one comes up with a manual, it might be worth contacting the seller to see if they can scan, photocopy, or lend it to you - or just buying another one as a backup..

For these things, manuals won't be in electronic form, so it usually requires a dedicated passionate owner (eg like yourself) to scan theirs and put it online for others, or, the actual company to invest in getting it's old manuals online (some companies are better than others about doing this). Hop...

This was the closest I found, but it seems all his manuals are offline (probably when Dropbox changed all their links) - might be worth telling him and he can fix it...

No 202, but 102, and 201 are there...

Oh right, I see. You have to sign in to Encyclotronic, not Factmag. LOL. Sorry for confusing things. ... Strange, I can see it right there. Stupid question, did you scroll down past the image of the magazine? I don't see a sysex download link either, in Safari or Chrome. (Also no difference when tu...

Ok, you screenshotted the Factmag page, which was confusing as I had gone direct to Encyclo. I thought when you re-screenshotted Factmag that *that* was where the link was, but I seen it's just a link to Encyclo.) In any case, there's no link on Encyclo, the screenshot of what I see there I attached...

Strange. I am not signed in, and I've an adblocker in Chrome. I see this:

Edit: Ok, I was clicking on the Encyclotronic link in your text, but you had screenshotted the Factmag link, so I was confused.

I don't see a sysex download link either, in Safari or Chrome. (Also no difference when turning adblockers off.)

Are you signed in? Perhap you have to be signed in to get the link?

Are there any downsides today with "in the box" (ITB) solutions compared to the 80s/90s way of hardware synths/samplers? Well, some people like a room full of gear. When I was a kid, I used to doodle my dream studios, and they were pretty much wall to wall synths, sequencers, samplers, mixers etc. ...
