UB-Xa Editor V5

Image
UPDATE V-5.115 Redesigned the Atrophy Profile area. Remember always turn  Edit Adv  to ON or your changes will have no effect and not be stored. You can now save the name of the Atrophy stored in the Patch preset. It's only 6 letters - remember to press WRITE on the UB-Xa to save it. If you rename one of the Atrophy presets use Profiles NAMES/UPDATE to refresh the list.  There are 3 disabled buttons but these should be working on the next update. They will let you copy an Atrophy preset from the 8 user presets or the 8 factory presets into the current patch.   New File functions and Side Panel parameters Downloads NOTE: To keep old DL links the same the filenames say V3 but they are the updated V5 versions. All files have been scanned with AVG Antivirus. The editor is free and comes with no warranties. Play at your own risk. You will need to grant access in Security and Privacy as I am unknown developer :( Mac versions were built on an iMac running Catalina. Plugins ...

UB-Xa Editor Manual - updated regularly

Image
 Introduction The Mac versions have been tested on Catalina 10.15 but users of later Macs report it runs as a standalone app on M1 and later. The plugins do not run on Silicon. PC versions have been built on Windows 7 and tested on Windows 10. Special thanks to  RomanKubiak  who developed CTRLR. The editor is free and without warranty. I accept no liability for loss or damage. However, MIDI messages are unlikely your damage your synth and you can always do a firmware reset if you have problems. SETUP The UB-Xa uses NPRN and SysEx messages to communicate with the editor. NPRNs need to be enabled on the UB-Xa.  Enable NPRN for USB connection Press SHIFT + ASSIGNABLE PRESET 1 to load the USB-MIDI menu.  Scroll to Local Ctrl and enable [X] ProgChangeRx, ProgChangeTx, NPRNTx and NPRNRx.  Then select the USB Ctrl menu enable USB NPRN-Tx and NRPN-Rx.

Oberheim TEO-5 Editor

TEO-5 Edit V2 I have added a 3rd Tab to the editor which gives access to some of the sequencer and a simpler editing page based on the SEM called the Semulator: MAC Standalone V2 PC Standalone V2 V2 includes the original V1 editor  Main Editor Page Matrix Mod and File Page New editor page giving you a simple 16 Step Sequencer and a SEM editor - the Semulator The sequencer is useful for recording and editing monophonic lines - might do a full polyphonic version but not sure I would ever use it. The Semulator is just a bit of fun and just gives you access to the same controls and modulators of the original SEM. It's best to start with a basic program and use it like a soft synth. Note that VCO1 and 2 are swapped around because on the original SEM VCO2 synced to VCO1 - on the TEO it's the other way around.   The modulators specifically use the first 3 slots of the MOD MATRIX - just click on SOURCE box to setup the Mod Matrix. Best to start with a Basic Program. I got the idea for...
