Character Limits for Naming Patches?

Freak MiniFreak V

I am running into an apparent limit on the length of patch names in MiniFreak V.

13 characters seems to be the limit. Is this a feature or a bug?

Anyone have a suggestion for working around this limit?

Most other Arturia V synths seem not to have this limit. For example, the Buchla Music Easel V, Korg MS-20 V, and Pigments allow names up to 32 characters.

Hi @onewe. Welcome back.

My guess is it’s because there is a hardware MiniFreak that share presets with MiniFreak V.
But you can ask Arturia support through your account.

That is exactly the truth - there’s a character limit on the synth. It’s either 13 or 15 characters I believe.

Yeah, that’s right, it’s to allow the patch names not to go off-screen on the hardware.
