From the FM-1 to this page
Plug the FM-1 into this computer over USB, get the sound you want on it, then press SAVE and then GLO. The screen says SOUND SENT and the sound lands here as text: every control's value, the same text the emulator's Copy sound makes.
Chrome or Edge, with MIDI allowed when the browser asks. Firmware 0.7.5 or later.
Waiting for MIDI permission…
What to do with it
- Keep it: paste the text anywhere. It is the whole sound.
- Send it in: the button above opens a new issue on GitHub with the text filled in. Say how you play it. Sounds sent in may become presets, with a credit.
- Ask for something: an idea rather than a sound goes in an issue too, and lands on the ideas page.
- Hear it anywhere: the values are the controls. Dial them into the emulator or another FM-1, page by page.
The FM-1 sends the sound as one SysEx message (manufacturer id 7D, then "AU"). A MIDI monitor app catches it too; this page just does the decoding.
