Bomes SendSX Equivalent for Mac Yosemite?

[SliderJeff]

Hey gang,

It's been ages since I messed around with presets or firmware/patch uploads on my ancient first gen Axe-Fx and since then I've moved all my audio stuff over to my Macbook Pro. As such, I'm trying to get everything setup on the Mac and realized I don't have any idea what to use to send SX messages and such on the Mac vs. using Bome's tool like I did on my WinXP machine back in the day. Does anyone have a particular tool that works reliably on the old legacy Axe-Fx with a Mac?

Thanks,
Jeff

I use this:snoize: SysEx Librarian

But for Axe, just use Fractal-Bot.

Thanks, bjjp2! I hadn't even heard of this fractal-bot thing. Much appreciated!

Just saw that you're using a first gen Axe. No idea if FB works with that.

What is a legacy axe? There was a Standard and Ultra before the Axe-Fx II.

Chris,

No, I just meant the very first gen, plain vanilla Axe-Fx Standard. Sorry for the confusion.

No worries. I plan on reading the manual before trying to use it. They are usually pretty clear about whether or not something supports the old stuff.

Thanks again,
Jeff

bjjp2,

Nope. Only for the new stuff, unfortunately. Bye bye, Fractal Bot download!
