Syxloom 5.1 adds patch names for more FM instruments, favourites, tag filters, setlists that mix instruments, and Shortcuts. More patch names: Yamaha TX81Z, DX21, DX27 and DX100 single voices and 32-voice banks, TX81Z performances, Yamaha reface DX voices, and Korg volca fm2 programs. The volca fm2 layout is community-documented and labelled as such in the app. DX7 voices and banks are shown as compatible with the Korg volca fm and volca fm2, which receive DX7 data. A 4-op bank and a DX7 bank are told apart by their format byte, never by length alone. Fixed: reface DX dumps no longer show a false checksum or length warning. A reface DX voice (header, blocks and footer) and a TX81Z voice with its additional data now stay together as one library entry, on import and when saved from Monitor. The inspector checks them message by message. Library: mark favourites, filter by tag or favourites, and search with several words across names, tags, notes, recognised models and patch names. Setlists: give entries in a send set their own destinations to send to several instruments in one reviewed transfer. A destination that is not connected blocks the review; nothing is sent to another port. Requests: new presets for the 4-op family, reface DX, Prophet '08 and DeepMind 12. Notes for the original DX7 and Circuit are clearer, and suggested gaps are marked separately from documented ones. Shortcuts: open a library entry, import a SysEx file, or prepare a send set. Nothing is sent until you confirm in the app. Recognition is based on published MIDI specifications, and on community documentation where labelled. These additions were tested against generated data, not instruments. Syxloom does not confirm that an instrument received or stored a patch.

NEW IN 5.0 — A PATCH LIBRARIAN PATCH NAMES The inspector now lists the patch names inside recognized dumps: Yamaha DX7 single voices and 32-voice banks, Korg minilogue, monologue, prologue and minilogue xd programs, Sequential programs (Prophet '08, Prophet-6, OB-6, Rev2, Prophet-5 and Take 5), Novation Circuit synth patches and Behringer DeepMind 12 programs. Imported files are named after the patch they contain, and search matches patch names. Syxloom never guesses: a name is shown only when the published layout matches exactly and the bytes are plain text. Layouts documented by the user community rather than the manufacturer are labelled. DX7 BANK BUILDER Pick voices from any DX7 bank or single voice in your library, order them, and save a new 32-voice bank with a correct checksum. Save any voice from a bank as a single voice, or rename it into a new copy. EDIT AND REPAIR BYTES Edit a message as hex with live validation. Roland, Yamaha and XG checksums can update automatically. Repair a mismatched checksum into a new copy. Originals are never changed. MIDI FILE IMPORT Import Standard MIDI Files (.mid) and Syxloom extracts every complete SysEx message. DUPLICATE FINDER Find identical files, the same sound saved under another name, and DX7 voices repeated across banks. AUDITION AND RECALL Play a test note or chord, send bank select and program change, and send All Notes Off to every channel. REQUEST PRESETS AND PACING Documented patch-request presets for DX7, Korg logue, Sequential and Circuit. Pacing profiles can use published gaps: Roland 40 ms, Circuit 20 ms, or 150 ms for older gear.

NEW IN 4.0 — SNAPSHOT COMPARE Save independent copies of selected messages before a session or repair. Compare snapshots by library identity or explicitly corresponding message order. Inspect added, removed, changed and unchanged records, complete byte counts and SHA-256 hashes; share a JSON report. Detail is bounded to 128 changed ranges per message. Keep up to 20 snapshots and 16 MiB of copied data in checked workspace backups. Snapshot workspaces require this release or later. Comparison never sends MIDI and does not decode patch addresses or prove hardware storage.

Syxloom 3.0 adds a reviewed transfer workbench: frozen message order, destination identity, checksums and effective pacing before every send. Keep distinct completion, cancellation, failure and interruption receipts. Back up the complete local workspace with an integrity check and restore preview, recover unreadable files without silent overwrites, and retain source and termination details for captured dumps. Updated iPhone and iPad navigation includes searchable history, paged inspection and comparison, and an explicitly offline pipeline check.

The Patch Bench update. BENCH — a captured bank is no longer all-or-nothing. Build send sets: ordered selections from your library, delivered as one paced transfer with a per-set gap between messages. Reorder by drag, and the wire-time estimate updates as you build. DIFF — compare any two messages or captures byte by byte: changed regions named by offset, an aligned hex view, and a one-line verdict. DEVICES — run a census: Syxloom broadcasts the Universal Identity Request and turns every reply into a card naming the manufacturer, family, member, and firmware. A request builder composes Roland RQ1 messages with the checksum computed for you, plus a raw hex composer that validates before it sends. Per-device pacing profiles remember how slowly old hardware needs to be fed. Also: a live receive meter on the Monitor, a new icon, and a new instrument-panel look across the app. Everything stays on this device — no account, no tracking.

Syxloom now does the job end to end, with real CoreMIDI underneath. - Live capture from any CoreMIDI source, with true multi-packet reassembly so a full bank dump arrives byte for byte - A virtual "Syxloom" port other apps can send into, plus Bluetooth MIDI pairing - A real .syx importer that reads binary dumps and splits a bank into one entry per patch - Field-by-field decoding with hex highlighting: manufacturer, device, model, command, address, data, and checksum - Per-vendor checksum verification, with an honest "not applicable" for the many manufacturers that use none - Declared byte counts compared against what actually arrived, so a truncated dump is caught - Paced sending with live progress, cancel, and a pause between messages - Byte-exact .syx export, hex paste, tags, notes, and search - A new offline reference: manufacturer IDs, framing rules, checksum coverage, universal sub-IDs, and a safe-send checklist
