MAC USERS
REJOICE!! We are very happy to announce that
a third party Java based editor for the Switchblade line is now
available. Third party Java developer
Lars Barstad has done a remarkable job in creating this very
versatile editor that can be used both on MAC and PC computers
to create presets on your Switchblade. JavaBlade has many
of the features of the PC based WinBlade editor and some
exciting additional features. Just look at this feature
set!
-
Create presets using an
icon based point & click worksurface
-
Set all preset
parameters as well as most global parameters from the editor
-
Set and use all Smart
Insert functions
-
Create icons for devices
not connected to the Switchblade to create schematics of the
entire rack system
-
Upload and Download all
preset as well as global settings
-
Simplified file system
insures foolproof operation
-
Smooth intelligent
visual operation for fast, fun performance
-
Checked and endorsed by
Sound Sculpture
The
JavaBlade editor can only be used with the Switchblade GL,
Switchblade 8B, and Switchblade 8 models with firmware revision
6.34 or higher. An upgrade kit is available for all 3
models from our Web Shop if you are running an earlier revision. To download
this incredible tool for your Switchblade, please follow the
link below:
IMPORTANT NOTE: JavaBlade was NOT
developed by Sound Sculpture and we are simply hosting the
program on our web site. The program is no longer being
revised and no further updates will be available (at this time).
You will likely not find any major bugs in it, HOWEVER, some
USB-MIDI interfaces will not work with JavaBlade and if
JavaBlade does not seem to communicate with your Switchblade,
this is the likely reason. Please experiment with various
USB-MIDI interfaces (the cheap simple kind work well) to find
the one that works with your computer. DO NOT use
JavaBlade if you are not willing to experiment in this way.
We apologize for this unfortunate deficiency in the program (and
in Java) but we feel having a Java editor is better than not
having a Java editor, so enjoy! We will try and compile a
list of good interfaces that work for other users and post them
here soon.
