"Can the HAWK do sequential type full patch dump/load with MIDI CC(?)"

A: I am not quite sure I understand what you mean. Can you rephrase the question?

"Mike, i have something for you re: that LCD, pretty nice"

I am not sure what you're talking about. Care to elaborate?

Blaine, try just faking the LFO with events spaced at 16ths or somet'ing, that 
should be more than enough to get a reasonable curve - i listen to some things, 
where people complain about 0-127 resolution(stepping'non-analogue'etc)-i think it 
is trivial 99% of the time - you can't really tell all that much. i had the ju106, which 
is usually cited for this next to ju60/6 and had the alpha too (now have mks50), 
and yeah the later ones do show some stepping but only on specific patches, 
and it's often been used as part of the sweep effect - with offset pulse periods, 
you get a stepped waveform too - i love the alpha, basic and effective.
(may have said this before, lousy memory)

Mike: 'awesome, dood' MIDI CC for everything, that is the tops - by far the 
easiest. sysex is an unintuitive shag, really. i know i can easily do a SE
plugin for it now :))))) and i think i now understand rpn/nrpn a bit better: 
it seems that if you think of the msb+lsb as a combined single number, 
eg 14000, (what's that in hex, msb/lsb...), that works as a parameter address 
with synthedit, it seems - so would that be a way to get finer value resolution, don't 
know(just waffling..) - not at all sure about this yet - i'll get round to knocking up 
a mini filter control unit maybe first with a few params -hey not trying to muscle in 
or anything, just thinking ;-)
btw: go to Soundbytes dot whatever, and look for his MIDIknob prefab, that's the 
one, dead easy. the modules work fine, i've used them for some tests before. 
can be very easy to have a selfcontained VSTi for this. i'm working on a 16 step 
sequencer with pattern memories and vari-bpm tempo, randomizer, acccent, 
porta on/off, very easy interface, click UI, could be fun to add to it.(almost done, 
need to check the MIDI out bus) with MIDI CC, no issues whatsoever via USB, 
etc. and it will work in ableton too(no sysex handling)-i suppose you can even do 
sequential type full patch dump/load with MIDI CC(?)

*and*, Mike, i have something for you re: that LCD, pretty nice. i made a knobman file 
this morning, you can have any colour you want, double quick -but it is only 
0-99 at present. i'll send you the file a bit later, and you can generate your 
own image strips from it. i also found a shedload of LCD fonts the other day, 
lots of different ones. knobman and skinman are your friends for this, and 
i use paintdotnet for editing.

i'm considering making a new case for my remote zero out of aluminium 
so i can rack it - yet another 'idea'/project with dubious chances of completion..
don't know why they don't do that anyway, these days.
(that's all for now! )
