Sysex for Prophet 10 via MIDI
Hi folks, a friend of mine who bought my Prophet 10 back in the 90s is now having a problem where it won't save programs. Wine Country hasn't been able to help him. I recall the MIDI kit I installed allowed loading of programs via sysex. Do any if you have experience with that for the Prophet 5 or 10 or what software would be used to do that? Thanks!

Re: Sysex for Prophet 10 via MIDI
I know your history with the Sequential Circuits instruments but I still can't believe you sold your Prophet 10... Besides that, I can't help, sorry.

Unfortunately both his Prophet 10 and my Prophet T8 are out of commission currently

Re: Sysex for Prophet 10 via MIDI
Hello, do any of you have experience sending Sysex commands via MIDI to any instrument? If so, what are you currently using? Thanks!

I had a Prophet 5 back in the day and if I remember correctly ( I did it a couple of times) the only way to get the data in or out was with a tape recorder.

Re: Sysex for Prophet 10 via MIDI
Thanks, I'll have to dig a little further on that. I assumed it would be a data transfer via computer/MIDI but there might have been a similar capability with the Sysex data on tape. Earlier Prophet 10s like mine had a drive that used a small tape (about half the width of the tape in a cassette) that was really unreliable. The MIDI kit I installed disabled the drive but as you mention, there might be an option using external tape to MIDI not needing a computer.

Re: Sysex for Prophet 10 via MIDI
I found that there's software available called "MIDI Quest" that is compatible with over 800 instruments, including the Prophet 10 for storing and transferring programs, so that might be my best bet. If any of you have experience with the software, I'd appreciate your thoughts on it (PM if you'd prefer). Thanks!
