Figured out WTF I was doing and updated the AX80 patch dump files: A and B are now each in their own .WAV file.
Somebody try these out.

BINGO! Both banks loaded right in. Some great patches in here! Really heads above the generic presets. Its great to finally hear some new sounds out of this guy that I didn't make!

If anyone has trouble loading them in, I'd be happy to post a short instructional.

Great work guys!

Cool I never got hear the A/B presets on my AX80 and it's now full of customs sounds (good ones!) - will back em up and give this a try. :)

oh and for late readers no the AX80 edit wheel doesn't update the Filter Cut Off in real time (you need to release and repress a key) but you CAN assign it to the mod wheel with a limited range but real time (search for the thread with my 'guide' in it to see how if confused)

I found the .WAV files on a USB drive. Member "Space6oy" has once again agreed to host them. I will get them to him today pm and they should be up soon after. Contact him directly to download. These will be WINDOWS AUDIO files and will need to be "played back" into the TAPE input on the AX-80.


EDIT: Here they are:

Thanks to Space6oy ~

They're in the Service Manual, but I highly suggest upgrading the AX80 firmware to support MIDI CC / SysEx or at least using the tape in to transfer the stock patches.

Manually keying in the factory patches is a 100% waste of time.

If you're looking for any of those items, do a search here or a Google search. I'm pretty sure I've documented just about everything applicable for the AX80 somewhere.
