This started as a personal project as I was in need of some patch manager/organizer for my Waldorf Pulse 2 Analog synthesizer, which I had to eventually undertake myself, as I was quite disappointed with the lack of patch management feature set in what so little is available in market for this wonderful little synthesizer. After Completing Basic Librarian, I decided to also add a native Pulse 2 Editor.
