It’s been awhile since I have posted and I won’t bother with the details. Let’s just say, I hope 2024 never repeats! Annnnd moving on…
So where to begin. This is just a quick list of things that I will flesh out in the upcoming weeks.
- ** LOW STOCK ** on existing ROM catalog
- Stock counter is now shared between all products and is current
- There will be another production run (lead time ~5-6 mo)
- User guide for Shock Treatment almost complete, and as a special thank you:
- Command station supplementary patterns will be provided
- P2K preset conversions in progress
- In lieu of adding any more capabilities to prodatum, I have created another utility that will simplify the loading and saving of any P2K family sysex. It is available free of charge, and if you are good with python scripting – you just need to download the files and run. Otherwise you can download the portable binaries on github here: https://github.com/haxorhax/haxloader/releases/tag/v1.0.1. The documentation has not caught up yet, but eventually will be on the project wiki page.
Features at a glance:- A more capable E-Loader replacement
- Loading and saving of presets, arps and Command Station patterns and songs
- Presets, arps, patterns, and songs can have their sysex edited before uploading (not every parameter, but the common ones)
- ROM conversion:
- Convert between CMPSR presets and P2500 / PROM presets
- Convert between XLEAD presets and XL-7 / XROM presets
- Convert between PHATT presets and MP-7 / MROM presets
- Convert Audity 2000 presets into XLEAD / XL-7 / XROM presets
- For existing XL-7 / XLEAD / XROM owners, Balma will be donating free banks from his collection
- Will upload preset zip file shortly
- Considering the possibility to start a Kickstarter group buy where I can also gauge the interest (and procure parts) for:
- ROM custom programmer
- Blank ROM stock to use with custom programmer
- Currently available ROMs (discounted)
- Support development for other ROMs (FIZMO, and maybe another)
