Hey all.
I wondered whether it was possible to send presets sysex files from a LP to another one without the use of any computed.
Not sure if a USB cable type BB does exist and/or if the LP/Slim allows that. An alternative could be to use a USB->DIN adapter.
Any experience? Any testers?
Thanks in advance

Is page 42 of the manual helpful?

Thanks LedBetter Receiving or sending SysEx files is indeed simple. What I'm not sure about is how to set it up without any computer: as said before, it seems a USB type BB cable is needed, or a somewhat autonomous USB-DIN converter. Not sure the first one is very common though...
I just wanted to gather some experience...

Re: Phatty to Phatty patch transfer
Sorry about 1-not having consulted the manual and 2-answering before my morning coffee.
Indeed, the SEND CURRENT PRESET option description p.42 is as follows:
This option allows you to send the current preset (system exclusive
data format) for archiving a preset in the SP’s memory. This requires
another SP, Little Phatty, or computer with a MIDI interface and a program
that can accept a SysEx dump. You must enable the device that
is to receive the SysEx data. Once the remote device is enabled, press
ENTER to start the data transfer.
Moreover, I don’t know why I got stuck on the USB cable issue when a simple DIN MIDI cable would do the job…
I’ll try that and report as soon as my Slim arrives

I do it all the time from my LP across 3 Slims and works perfectly via Midi. Have fun!!
