I bought a Yamaha Reface CS, a virtual analog mini synthesizer, and got annoyed that Yamaha provides only an iOS app to store the sound settings. There is also an online service, SoundMondo, that shares Reface sound settings using Web Midi in Google Chrome. It works but requires internet access and registration.
Thus, here are two simple command line utilities to read and write Reface CS sound settings.
See the Reface MIDI implementation document available at <URL?>
- Python 3
- configparser
- MIDO and MIDI backend, see https://mido.readthedocs.io/. Suggested Debian packages: python3-mido, python3-rtmidi
A setup script is provided. Typically
$sudo python3 setup.py install
cs_setsound FILE: read sound settings from FILE and write to Reface CS
cs_getsound FILE: read sound settings from Reface CS and write to FILE
See the included example in examples/patch1
