Vyzex Vortex User’s Guide
Patch File Open/Save
While the Set file format (*.SQS) is ideal for saving and restoring entire banks of Vortex patches, there will probably be
times when you want to save, share or load a single patch at a time.
You can save the currently loaded patch to a Patch (*.PCH) file any time you like
– You don’t even have to STORE it first.
Right-click anywhere there is no editable control in the editor GUI (such as the
Alesis logo) and select ‘Save Patch As...’ to launch the patch save dialog.
To open a patch file, simply repeat the steps above, only select ‘Open Patch...’ from the menu. The contents of this file will
replace the currently loaded patch, but you will need to STORE this patch to the bank to make it a permanent part of your
Vortex onboard bank and to check out the settings in real-time from your Vortex front panel. Selecting another patch in the
bank or collection prior to pressing the ‘Store Edited Patch’ button will replace the opened patch file data with the new
selection.
MIDI Ports and Autosense
When you first install Vyzex Vortex, the program is configured for AutoSense and to open Use All MIDI ports.
These program options instruct the editor to open All the MIDI ports on your computer and scan to see which MIDI port is
the dedicated Vortex Editor Control MIDI port. Once the editor knows the correct port to use, it configures itself to use the
detected MIDI In and Out port for communications with your Vortex.
This particular setup is the fastest and most reliable choice because the Vortex MIDI port ordering in your computer’s USB
MIDI Port list can change between runs of the program (depending on what USB MIDI devices you have currently plugged
in) and the editor will catch these changes and reconfigure itself each time.
The AutoSense and Use All MIDI Ports options have the consequence that the Vyzex editor opens all the MIDI ports
available to your computer and keeps them open while the editor is running. On a Window computer, this could cause
conflicts with other music software that wants access to your Vortex and any other MIDI devices connected to your
computer.
On Windows computers there is a USB MIDI driver limitation that only one software application can
use any given hardware MIDI port at a time.
This issue is called the Windows Single-Client USB MIDI Driver Problem, and it applies to any
MIDI device that uses the USB MIDI driver included with Windows XP, Vista, or 7 ...such as Vortex.
Mac users, feel free to gloat, but remember your latté is getting cold so try to keep it short.
Regardless of whether you are a Mac or PC user, you may not want the Vyzex editor to be listening to all the MIDI ports
on your computer and engaging all of its MIDI output ports whenever the program is running.
