Alternate Mode TrapKAT 5 Editor and Librarian
Midi Quest for Macintosh and Windows
Sound Quest's
Midi Quest multi-instrument editor/librarian gives you the tools to get the most from your Alternate Mode TrapKAT 5.
Midi Quest includes all of the standard features you would expect to
find in a TrapKAT 5 Editor and Librarian along with unique capabilities found
nowhere else.
MIDI Quest Pro, Midi Quest and Midi Quest Essentials allows you to manage the following SysEx from the TrapKAT 5: Kit Bank, Kit 24, Global, All and Kit Bank (Bulk).
Integrate the TrapKAT 5 with your DAW and use it the same way as a
soft-synth or run the editor as a separate application connected to
your TrapKAT 5. You can display, edit, tweak, organize, audition,
archive and manage your TrapKAT 5 from the focal point of your
studio. Midi Quest Pro offers the widest selection of editor/librarian
plug-in technologies: AU, VST3, VST2, AAX, and MFX.
Below is a small sampling of Midi Quest features.
