Joel,Very good idee,I'm in for it.I remember the same for the korg-prophecy.
Sometimes only the name of a patch was given,f.i. Forbidden Planet and
you could use your imagination.They also make a "Bank of the year" by voting
for the "best" patches and make a bank of it,as .mid-file.(universal for all).
