That's correct, actually the range is 0-999 for most parameters. Behringer hasn't yet released a full MIDI implementation chart for the Pro-800 (I hope they will at some point), and I haven't had the time to really dig into the sysex - although I have figured it out how to name your own presets - but what they normally do is called "nibblizing": Slicing up the data into smaller "nibbles", keeping them next to each other (often as a pair consisting of LSN - Least Significant Nibble and MSN - Most Significant Nibble) and then you have plenty of bits for the value of 999, which is 10 bits binary (1111100111) so 2 x 7 bits is more than enough for storing one parameter. But again, this is just my best guess, I haven't had the time to study the sysex in depth, I'm too busy playing and recording with the Pro-800.Mantras wrote: ↑Mon Jul 17, 2023 11:17 am I have a question. In the manual lots of MIDI CC# numbers is listed for the parameters. MIDI CC# is 7-bit information (0-127) but when people operating the Pro-800 turning knobs it is showing a finer range of values in the display 0-1000? How does it add up? Anyone with a unit who knows?

I've challenged myself to recreate this theme using only one synth...

I mean, pretty much nailed. I remember watching a making of video, and various old gear was used. Pretty sure a prophet 5 was used for the bass.

I think your version is slightly better than the minilogue version. I was so impressed by the minilogue that I was tempted to buy it (I have the XD version) but I managed to hold off.

I'm a long time owner of a Prophet-600, so I'd love to get access to that Sysex info. There might be someone out there who could take the P-600 patch tape dumps and translate those old patches to Bro-600 format via Sysex. That would be huge for me, as the one thing holding me back from selling my Prophet-600 is all the great sounds I programmed over the past couple decades.NorbertVarga wrote: ↑Mon Jul 24, 2023 1:26 pmThat's correct, actually the range is 0-999 for most parameters.

I received a late night email from Sweetwater saying they have a few Behringer Pro-800 units in stock. I immediately placed my order after seeing that there were only 9 units left in stock.
Get 'em while they're hot, lads!

As for NorbertVarga's version of Stranger Things Theme, I would go as far to say it's better than the original version. If it's really all done on a Pro-800, then I think that's good enough reason to buy one if you want the prophet sound.

Great first post! Can people use this to see preset settings?

Thanks,
I used an unofficial document to implement preset reading: https://github.com/samstaton/pro800/blo ... o800syx.md.
For it to work, it is necessary to make a MIDI feedback between the application and the synth. This feature uses sysEx MIDI messages. Therefore, this feature only works with the standalone.

I hope something like this can be made for their pro-16 or UB-X/UB-Xa (If they're ever released) as I prefer storing presets and doing sound design in the box.

Does the Pro 800 have a stereo output? From the photos I looked at, it looked like mono. Pads are my favorite sounds and I’m just not sure how I could pull them off on a mono instrument. However everything else about the Pro 800 seems super interesting.
