D-50 Personal Patches

P E R S O N A L P A T C H E S & A L L T H E W E B C O L L E C T I O N

Hmmm..... what am I going to play today?

This page gathers two different things:
at first, there are D-50 soundbanks containing totally new and original personal programmations. Feel free to download and use it!
If you also want to share your personal creations, do not hesitate to send it to me via e-mail, and I'll post it here.
All patches published on this page become automatically free public domain material.
Do not send commercial or copyrighted sounds but only personal programmations that you agree to share with others. Thanks!

Finally, I added to the bottom of this page a compilation of dozens of D-50 soundbanks that I downloaded through the years on the Net.

P E R S O N A L P A T C H E S

Soundbanks are available in standard Sysex (*.syx - 36'048 bytes) and Midi Quest© (*.bnk) file formats
KEEP IN MIND THAT SENDING THESE SOUNDBANKS TO YOUR SYNTH WILL ERASE ALL DATAS STORED IN YOUR D-50/D-550 INTERNAL MEMORY

Click here if you need some help or indications on how to transfer these soundbanks to your D-50/D-550 !!

I gathered here in a zipped (*.zip) folder dozens of D-50 soundbanks (sysex format only) that I gleaned through the years by surfing on the Net.
Sorry, I did not sort it out, you'll certainly find several duplicates in it. But you'll also have access to hundreds of sounds to "feed" your favorite synth.
As I downloaded all these soundbanks for free in the past, I may consider it as public domain material. Now, if you are the owner of one or several of these soundbanks and you do not agree that they are available on this page, please inform me via e-mail, and I'll retire it immediately.

ALL THE WEB PATCHES (1.10 Mo)

P A T C H E S F R O M O L D I S S U E S

A collection of D-50 patches have also been published in diverse old late 80's specialized issues.
I programmed several of them manually and compiled it in two sysex soundbanks:

1°/ The complete collection (48 patches) published in the "Keyboards Magazine" french version issue during the 1987-97 years. They are all readers' creations.

KEYBOARDS MAGAZINE PATCHES (10.5 Ko)

2°/ An additional soundbank (30 patches) gathering sounds published in diverse international issues.
Open here a PDF page with patches description. UPDATED WITH 12 NEW PATCHES ON 2011-12-17
Many thanks to the internautes who scanned and sent to me these patches and sorry for the delay for publishing it!!

DIVERSE ISSUES PATCHES (6.00 Ko)

NOTE 1: if you own old issues containing D-50 patches that are not published here, I would be interested in (a PDF scan or a JPG version from the data sheets are both welcome)
NOTE 2: these patches here have been published in old issues. So, I may consider it as public domain material. If you are the author of one or several of these patches and you do not agree that they are available here, please send me an e-mail and I'll withdraw it immediately

Your personal programmations are welcome!
