Saving/backing up individual presets

[mustgroove]

The Moog Voyager librarian software is great, but it's very much geared towards management of entire banks on the synth itself... I'm trying to do the following and I can't really see an easy way to do it:

- Create a new preset (either from scratch or by tweaking an existing patch/preset)
- Export it to my studio computer using the librarian software, without overwriting any default preset on the synth itself

Can anyone give me a helping hand here?

For individual presets, I just use page 3.2 under the Master button on the synth (either Send panel sound or Send Preset(s) depending on what I need) to a SysEx program (SysEx Libraian 1.1 for the Mac). Since I only have the demo version of the editor software, I just use it for fooling around w/ the Genetics/morphing settings... Unfortunately, not sure how you can do it w/ the editor program...

Yes -- the Voyager Editor works with entire banks at a time.

What I have done is click the menu option Midi|Raceive All Bank Data(sic). This updates my computer with all data from my Voyager. When I want to create a new preset, I overwrite one of the Preset Default PROG presets. After doing this, I transmit the entire bank to my Voyager even though I simply changed one preset. My Voyager Editor has a mirror image of all presets since I synced it above. No issues doing this as of yet. Also, it's a good idea to backup all of your banks incase of a mishap of some sort.

I just use MIDI-OX and send and receive them as I need to as sysex files.
