What to include in your request

If a problem involves a SysEx file, tell us which device profile you selected. Send a sample only if you are comfortable sharing it and have permission to do so.
01 / Getting started
Getting started
on macOS
- Open Laser Mammoth → Settings… and add your synthesizer. On a fresh installation, you can also click “Open Settings”.
- Select the synthesizer from the Devices menu.
- To use hardware, connect the instrument and select its MIDI input and output ports. Follow the device-specific instructions in the app.
- To work with a file, choose “Import SysEx”. Imported programs appear in the Clipboard. Move them to the Masterboard by dragging or using “Swap Lists”.
- Use “Save a new Bank” to store the Masterboard locally, or “Export SysEx” (“Download SysEx” in some builds) to save a .syx file.
02 / Your connection
MIDI
troubleshooting
Check that your synthesizer is switched on, the correct ports are selected, and SysEx reception or transmission is enabled on the instrument. Your MIDI interface must support SysEx. Some devices require a manual bank dump instead of “Request Programs”; consult the instructions for your selected profile.
Back up your instrument's sounds before using “Overwrite Program” or “Overwrite Bank”, which can replace sounds stored on the instrument.
03 / Your sound banks
Your local library
Laser Mammoth stores banks locally on your Mac. File → Export Database Backup creates a backup of the local library.
