MC-202 Hack

*Hack* *.version 2.0.* a better way to program your Roland mc-202
what is it:	a software application that works with your Roland mc-202 synthesizer New version 2.0.3 available! (see Version History in Documentation for info)
what are its features:	• complete application overhaul from v1.0 • go from mc-202 sequence on your synth to a MIDI file • go from a MIDI file to an mc-202 sequence • edit mc-202 sequences in the software, not on your mc-202's little screen • easily copy patterns between internal and external mc-202 sequences • preview sequences with built in mc-202-like softsynth, GM synth, or MIDI device • save visual mc-202 "snapshots" of front panel synth settings • exchange mc-202 patch "snapshots" using easily shareable text files • calibrate the program to your* specific MC-202 (old analog synths can be finicky!)*
let me see it:	Input section - accepts real-time or file-based MC-202 tape audio, or MIDI files. Sequences section - edit/playback one or both of the MC-202's sequences. Synth section - tweak internal softsynth, and save/load settings to disk. Output section - send sequences back to MC-202, to cassette audio or MIDI file. Calibrate window - adjust MC-202 Hack to work with your MC-202.
