Any way to load sysex patches onto the FA-08?

Post by Alexandru Vesa »

I have a couple of cool sysex patches and I'd like to play them on the FA, because of the workstation features and really nice keys.

Is there any way to do this?

Where are the SysEx patches from originally?

Yup, they are just strings of data which carry all kinds of different parameter values - but they are specific to different hardware, so you couldn't load a Korg M1 SysEx patch on to a Roland FA etc.
