your DAW’s MIDI interface and on the instrument, or the equivalent connection over USB. Then you need to have a program running on your computer that understands .syx files. Some DAW software, such as Cubase (my personal favorite), allows you to load in System Exclusive files. However, I’ve had better success over the years with using programs that are dedicated to doing such tasks. My favorite exclusive SysEx program for the PC is Bome’s SendSX (www.bome.com/ products/sendsx). It is a simple, straightforward app that gets the job done without much muss or fuss. If you need more flexible control over the flow of MIDI data, MIDI OX (www.midiox.com) has been a longtime favorite, albeit more cumbersome to use. I’ve found it helpful to have both programs on my PC. Case in point, SendSX would talk to my Casio VZ10M synthesizer whereas no amount of tweaking made MIDI OX talk to it without errors. My Mac friends tell me the free SysEx Librarian (http://www.snoize.com/SysExLibrari an) is their program of choice for their platform. Patch lists and patch panels Patch lists are a type of text file that holds all the information on how to switch to any patch program in a synthesizer, along with the names of each patch. Cubase, SONAR, Digital Performer, and Pro Tools all have the ability to use patch lists, but each of these apps has a different format for the file. While the MIDI data are universal, the way these apps were designed to deal with that MIDI data is not universal—for example, it’s not possible to take a Cubase patch list and load it into SONAR, and vice versa. Using patch lists inside of Cubase and SONAR is by far my most used MIDI feature (outside of Note On and Off, of course). This not only makes it convenient to find, hunt for and use patches on your synthesizer (Cubase even has a ‘filter’ where you can type in a name and only those patch names are shown), but it will also make the synthesizer recall the patch selected upon reloading the song in Cubase. The standard installation of Cubase comes with a good selection of built-in patch lists. There are also extensive amounts of patch lists on the internet. Learn to tweak and rearrange those patch lists to suit your own purposes. One of my favorite websites, Riveted Studios, has over 300+ patch lists for
