Roland M-OC1 Orchestra Editor 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 Roland M-OC1 Orchestra. Midi Quest includes all of the standard features you would expect to find in a M-OC1 Orchestra Editor Librarian along with unique capabilities found nowhere else.

MIDI Quest Pro, Midi Quest, Midi Quest Essentials, and Midi Quest one allows you to manage the following SysEx from the M-OC1 Orchestra: Performance, Performance Patches, Drums 1, Drums 2, System and Patch.

Integrate the M-OC1 Orchestra with your DAW and use it the same way as a soft-synth or run the editor as a separate application connected to your M-OC1 Orchestra. You can display, edit, tweak, organize, audition, archive and manage your M-OC1 Orchestra 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.
