Sending Patch Changes via Midi

Thanks for letting us know! I just wish that Arturia used the same patch management solution they have in all or most of their other plugins! It’s really frustrating, and although I can still load up Minifreak V patches in Analog Lab, there is a CPU overhead penalty of between 1% and 5% per instance using AL vs using a patch directly in the dedicated plugin (tested using Pigments, Minifreak V and a few others).

I wonder if there’s a limitation on the hardware side of Minifreak that prevents Arturia from implementing this? For example, patch names in Minifreak V can only be quite short which I’m guessing is due to hardware limitations.

Ultimately I suspect I might need to get a hardware Minifreak, but I’m already too deep in keyboards in my live setup as it is (Nord Stage 2, Novation SL61 Mk3 and Hydrasynth Explorer).
