Wow, this is exactly how I made my patch notes! Yes it is much easier to note down this way and probably also easier to setup the patch from the notes. I just don't know if I ever want to recreate a patch this way  |

However, now that I've filled all the slots in my 16 x 2 rack, drawing each wire may turn to be a mess at the end) ![]()  |

I did not know this thread existed. I’m pretty fluent in python. I may be able to bring something to the table with the above project. As I have time I’ll see what I can do for us!

Well I was looking to host bert's implementation and then was going to build a tool to make things easier on us, but unfortunately his script depends on certain packages that would require a VPS. I don't currently have a VPS 
If aemodular.com runs on a VPS, I can help implement this tool there if needed. Or if anyone has some other ideas I am all ears. Just shoot me a PM.

Patch symbols and patch editor are now available on their website : patchandtweak.com/Good way to share or ideas here, and there are even some ideas already shared in the patch editor! Great ! Symbols downloaded... (just for trying)
But I wonder if I'm really going to take some time to write down my patches...  When it's recorded, I make another patch...
As musician, I think we can rebuilt a patch by memory, at least an approaching patch ...  No ? |

As musician, I think we can rebuilt a patch by memory, at least an approaching patch ... No ? You've hit upon my philosophy: I like to spend a lot of time really understanding how a particular synth works (and works for me), then I can create and re-create patches to achieve the sounds that I have in my head. It takes a bit more time when things are hidden behind menus, rather than knobs. Then there are the weird architectures that take some mastering. It's time well spent, I believe, and I often spend hours just with one synth, turning what I want into a patch idea.
We're lucky with the AE Modular as almost everything is there for us on the front panels (the TOPOGRAF being one exception that comes to mind). I tried sketching patches and as they got more complicated, it didn't really seem an effective use of my time and the final drawings didn't add much to my ability to recreate them anyway.
As an aside, the book, Patch & Tweak is well worth a read, if you haven't already. The other two are less interesting to me, but are still very well-liked by many. I got one of the early copies, so I have a Patch & Tweak Eurorack blank panel that I stuck over my music area as I don' have any Eurorack  |
