Hi folk,

I was interested in creating some evolving & strongly rhythmic atmospheric sounds, like in the CSI crime-lab scenes. I'm not sure I quite achieved that, but here are 34 patches I came up with. They're all tempo-synced, but some work better at fairly slow "atmospheric" tempos as they're quite "busy". Pads, layered synths, split bass/keys etc. - lots of LFOs modulating the oscillator controls & filter.

Download available as a zip file here: [url]http://www.jazzman-ltd.co.uk/blog/rhythmically-evolving-patch.html[/url]

These are pure SysEx files you can send to your KingKorg individually using your DAW or any SysEx librarian.

Hope you enjoy them!
Richard.

PS: Add the arpeggiator on one (or both) layers if you want even more movement!

Hi, hoping I am missing something, I am trying to send the new patches to my KK but its not happening, I can receive a sysex dump on sysex librarian so know its talkng, but patches dont appear when I play/send, I have tried with sysex filter on and off on KK, is there another setting I need to change on KK, thanks in advance.

Somewhere in the global parameter menu there might be a parameter to en- and disable patch overwriting protection. Try to disable the protection, maybe that will solve your problem.

Hello,

I'm using the KingKorg sound librarian which does not accept SysEx files...
What is the best SysEx librarian for Windows 7?

Or, do you have the file in the *.kklib KingKorg sound librarian format?

Thanks,

Alejandro.-

I can't for the life of me figure out how to send these to my KingKorg.

Global ->g12 Common: Protect = Off

Global ->g27: Midi Filter: SysEx = Enable

Yet when I send the sysex files, nothing seems to happen.

I can twiddle the knobs and see messages flowing back and forth. I can trigger notes from my pc. As far as I can tell, all the midi data is flowing normally.

The KingKorg librarian program can communicate just fine.

Is there some trick to sending these?

I figured it out, after examining the sysex files in MidiOx and looking at page 38 of the PG guide, where it says:

3n [n=0–F] MIDI channel

...and the third byte in all the files is 34, meaning "Midi Channel 5"

If I change Global: g16: Global Ch to 5, it works.

Upshot: You need to set your global channel to 5 to send these.
