WOW! I won the Alesis Ion patch contest with my patch "StarShip(sw)" for the Ion. See Alesis' webpage, too. And here is a sample mp3 of my patch.

Alesis Germany did a little interview (in German) and on the News page there's a photo of me getting my brand new Andromeda A6 (scroll down a little bit...)

Cubase SX 2 XML Files (MIDI Device Patch lists)

I made some patch definition files for Cubase SX 2 myself because I wasn't able to find them on the Web and I wanted to use my gear in a more comfortable way within Cubase. You can download them here for free. :-)

I'm not sure whether Cubase stores the connection to the MIDI Out port in the XML file, too. I have a Steinberg Midex8 interface -- so if you find some glimpses of that in the XML file just ignore them. You have to connect it to your MIDI hardware anyway.

Choose the "Save target as ..." function of your browser to avoid that the XML file gets interpreted by your browser in some way. Or click on the ZIP file link to get the XML file compressed into a much smaller ZIP file.

Use at your own risk! ;-)

2004-05-25: downloaded the old-stylish txt file from access' website and converted it into xml with Cubase SX 2.2.0.

Don't worry about the filename if you have a Virus C/KC. The Indigo2 (which I have) uses the same factory presets as the Virus C/KC because, in fact, all models are a Virus C ... ;-)

finished. (2004-04-11)

BUT: you can see an entry called "orange" in the MIDI device editor in Cubase SX – I don't know how to get rid of it. When I select it and press the Del key (the only way to remove entries) everything gets deleted. :-(
If you have an idea – don't hesitate and drop me a line.

Wow. After such a long time I did it again! Cubase 4 was just released but I don't have it, yet. I hope I can use my work for the Andromeda without a problem in Cubase 4.

If anyone of you can support me with a patch script file (.txt) for one or more of the above mentioned gear -- don't hesitate and mail them to me! I'd really appreciate them!

And if you want to see the one or the other file being finished a bit earlier than I'd planned to finish it -- tell me and I'll see what I can do for you...
