Patchwork
Article from Music Technology, February 1990

Reviews of Stiletto's patches for the Roland D-series and Casio's CZ synths find themselves alongside a selection of readers' own programming feats in this month's Patchwork.

ROLAND D10 - ROMANCE

Edward Tilsley, Middlesex

I can see 'Romance' having a long and useful life ahead for many D10 users, being a string and piano combination which can also be split into a two-partial piano and two-partial strings. Edward admits that he finds this patch perfect for "those romantic, mellow moments between my keyboard and myself". (If you say so, Ed.)

CASIO CZ1 - BLUES GUITAR

Mick Robbins, Norwich

This is an excellent recreation of an electric guitar, played in fine style on Mick's demo. The overdriven edge of this patch, and Mick's liberal use of the pitchbend wheel add greatly to its authenticity, but I can imagine that it would be even more convincing put through a Rockman-type preamp. And Mick's demo proves once again that there's no substitute for studying the playing style of the genuine article and using it to really deliver your own patches or samples.

Patch Files

For all the patch charts published in these magazines, we'd like to get audio demos, and if possible, sysex files, or plugin presets, so users can easily preview the patches alongside the chart and download them for their synths, without having to transcribe them first.

So, it would be helpful for the hardware we don't own, if others could transcribe some patches, and create a short audio demo of the patch, and if possible, sysex and/or plugin preset files for those patches, and upload them using the form on the articles featuring those patches.

Audio previews:
Max 4MB, preferably 5-20 secs in length, MP3 format only. You can make previews using the original hardware, and/or plugin emulations. Let us know what they are in the comments of your upload.

Sysex files:
Zipped *.syx files, containing just the patch entry (or entries) for one patch listing.

Plugin presets:
Many synths have plugin emulations which can recreate or import sounds from the hardware. Zip up a file of the formats you can generate, and let us know which instruments they are for in the comments of your upload. Host/DAW files such as FXB/FXP and AUpreset are fine, as are proprietry file formats for particular plugins. The more formats we can provide, the more useful the files are. If you can just download some patches and create some formats we don't already have and upload them, that's also helpful.

We'll be transcribing and providing what we can, but we'd be grateful for people who'd like to help with this - thanks!
