If anyone wants the PSD or something, let me know. I just added handy things I like. It's kind of irrelevant if you use the online patch tool, but I thought it looked nice.

I am new here. I come bearing gifts...

Patch Card (Large Image)

This is nice, I have made actual patch cards, to fit on the synth itself. If anybody is interested I plan to start making them available. They can be custom printed to any design you like.

So... Being VERY new to modular and patching. Would something like this be used the write down favorite patches that I've made?

What exactly have people used these for? Just thought I'd ask.

They look great though!

Yeah. If you just get a sound you like, this is a way to record it. Of course, This will allow you to store them online, but sometimes I like to do things by hand or don't have my computer with me. It's like drafting and design. I prefer my tools and paper to CAD.

That's awesome! This is just a way to print out a virtually limitless amount, released for free, and as I said in my post, it has additional things I like to have on my own like notes and doodles.

I'd love to see yours though.

Understandable. That's pretty sweet though!

Never would have though to do something like that to record down what I've done to make specific sounds!

Back in "THE DAY" when you'd buy a monosynth most of the manuals included a patch sheet like this one. Most also included some sample patches to get you going...the same website mentioned above also has examples of other people's MS20 patches for you to try out which is very cool...check it out here http://20patch.constructingtowers.com/patches

Before the days of patch memories, it was the only way to be able to go back to a patch you made the other day - unless of course you were Rick Wakeman in which case he'd find a MiniMoog patch he liked, tape all the knobs in position so they wouldn't be moved, and buy another MiniMoog

This is a very early prototype version of the patch cards I make, this one is made of card. For me its the best way to keep a track on patches for playing live. Theres no patch bay on these as i only have one or two patching set ups in my live show

Patch card

very nice cards, but a bit impractical especially if you have a lot of patches, including several different patch cable connections to make.

nevertheless a good way to start with a patch in a song, twiddle the controls around, and go to the starting patch easily when you need it.

lazy as I am I take photo's of the starting patch, desaturate them en invert black and white to make them easier to read, and copy the pics to a tablet, which I put next to the rig

that's the digital way I guess. only goes to show that not everything digital is evil
