TAKE 5

FAST ‘n’ EASY USB INSTALL GUIDE + PATCH LIST

Install Requirements
1. A Sequential Take 5 (Keyboard or Desktop)
2. A PC (Windows 7+) or Mac (macOS 10.9+)
3. The free program MIDI-OX (PC) or free SysEx Librarian (Mac)
4.

IMPORTANT!
1. Before installing the patches, you must calibrate your Take 5 (Global > Cal Voices) to ensure the patches sound
as we intended. This is super important, because all analog synths drift out of calibration over time and the
patches might not sound like they do in our Youtube video if you don’t calibrate first.
2. When playing the patches, use the mod wheel as it usually provides an alternative unique version of the patch.
Also use aftertouch for additional expression, which is used on over 95% of the patches.
3. Note: Patches have “@up” in the patch name, simply for reference that the patches are from Ultimate Patches.

INSTALLATION PREPARATION - If you haven’t loaded patches into your Take 5 before, here’s how to do it:

1. Download and install the free MIDI-OX (PC) or SysEx (Mac) program:
http://www.midiox.com https://www.snoize.com/sysexlibrarian/

2. (Note: The following instructions are edited from Sequential’s official patch install instructions).
Connect your Take 5 to your PC or Mac using a USB cable. Press the Global button on your Take 5 and use the
Parameter knob to select “MIDI sysex cable” , then use the Value knob to choose USB. The Take 5 is a Class Compliant
USB device so it doesn’t require additional drivers to be installed to your computer. The Take 5 will appear in MIDI-OX
and other MIDI applications as a MIDI port named “Take 5” (In Windows XP, it will appear as “USB Audio Device.”)

3. Now’s a good time to back up the patches that are currently in your Take 5 before you install your Ultimate
Patches, because all patches in the Take 5’s user banks (banks U1-U8) will be overwritten. Note however, that the
synth’s built-in Factory patches will not be overwritten. To backup, see the “BACKUP - PC / MIDI-OX” or “BACKUP - Mac /
SysEx Librarian” sections in this manual.

3. Then select Sysex > Receive Manual Dump. The “SysEx Receive” window will open.

4. On your Take 5, scroll to any patch in the bank you wish to back up.

1. Open MIDI-OX. From the Options menu of MIDI-OX, choose “MIDI Devices.”

2. Click “Take 5” in the MIDI Inputs and MIDI Outputs areas of that MIDI Devices window (Windows XP shows “USB Audio
Device” instead of “Take 5”). The selected MIDI port appears in the Port Mappings window.

3. Click OK to close the dialog and save the settings.

4. From the View menu, choose “SysEx.” Then, from the SysEx menu, choose “Configure.”

5. Set the Low Level Output and Input Buffers “Num” and “Size” to 4096. Under Output Timing, make sure that “Auto-
adjust Buffer Delays if necessary” is NOT enabled. Click OK to close the dialog and save the settings.

8. From the Command Window menu, choose “Load File.” Browse to the files you purchased from us, and Open one of
the volumes eg “ULTIMATE PATCHES VOLUME 1.syx” (or 2 or 3). Note: the synth can store only one volume at a time.

9. From the Command Window menu, choose “Send SysEx”. The patches now send to your Take 5 and will replace any
existing programs in Banks U1-U8 on your Take 5. You’re ready to play!

NOTES: Patch volumes vary, as we sometimes overdrive the analog outs for huge saturated patches, and conversely, underdrive
the outs for more delicate patches. Also, the music played in our Youtube videos is played as a demonstration of the patches and
is not included.
