Need a trick to dump/save Minimax patches without the editor

Hi all Minimax users

I need a trick or hint to dump ( for back up purpose ) my Minimax patches, since I cannot use the original editor ( Mac os X )
Is there a way with sysex dump utility to request a dump from the minimax !?

I know the Minimax send out all controllers snapshot from the midi output when I make a program change.

Any advise somebody !?

Best regards,

Dave

I haven't heard of Scope devices accepting sysex dump requests.

But sending it a Program Change would do the trick then wouldn't it ?

With the original software editor ( I forgot the name since I it useless for me ) it was possible to dump all patches from and to the Minimax, so it is requesting a sysex midi dump message I suppose .

But I want to be able to do the same with a generic sysex dump utility like SYSEX APP the freeware for my macbook pro..


hope I made this understandable.

Have a nice day
