Version 1.3.0

I've only tested this on my machine. Being Java, it might run on other machines?

Major Update:

• Added Prophet 5 sound librarian. This is untested since I don't own a Prophet 5, but theoretically it works. If you happen to try it out and run into issues, please contact me.

Requirements as far as I know:

• Up-to-date Java (https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp)

To install

1. Download the jar file for your synth below.
2. Double-click the jar file.
3. You may have to open System Settings -> Security to allow the application to be opened.
4. Always backup your patches!! Either through the SoundLibrarian (via menu Save Library…) or alternative (e.g. SysEx Librarian), as the “Send All” option will overwrite your synth's user banks with the currently loaded library.

Please refer to the README for usage information

Version 1.1.12

I've only tested this on my machine. Being Java, it might run on other machines?

Minor Update:

• Added Print... menu item to File menu, which will bring up a dialog to print out the user banks in a hopefully friendly format. The user may also be able to save to PDF instead of choosing to print. Known issue: on Mac, the "Open in Preview" button functionality is broken as per the following ticket. Clicking on "Open in Preview" will actually send the job to the printer. (https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8276027).
• This print functionality addresses issue #13.

I've only tested this on my machine. Being Java, it might run on other machines?

Version 1.1.8

I've only tested this on my machine. Being Java, it might run on other machines?

Minor Update:

• Fix for an issue where when the Prophet 6 is disconnected and reconnected and a READ or READ ALL is attempted, the progress dialog freezes the app. This is an issue with the underlying SysEx MIDI Java library, where the Receiver object is not being set on the Transmitter properly. The workaround was to timeout the receive process, and display an error and try again. Addresses issue #10.
