Microtonic Import and Export

The PO-32 Tonic’s drum engine comes from Sonic Charge’s Microtonic, so Microtonic patches carry straight across. PO-PatchStudio reads and writes them in Transfer & Import, under Microtonic import & export. It reads all three generations of the Microtonic patch format, older patches included.

These are your own files. PO-PatchStudio doesn’t include or share any Sonic Charge content.

Import One Drum (.mtdrum)

1. In the Studio, pick the voice you want to replace, and put the Morph slider on the side you want to fill: left for A, right for B.
2. In Transfer & Import, select Load .mtdrum file, or paste the patch text into the box and select Parse pasted text.

The drum lands on that side of the voice, and the voice takes the patch’s name.

Import a Whole Preset (.mtpreset)

A Microtonic preset holds 8 drums, and the PO-32 has 16 voices, so two presets make a full kit.

1. Select Load .mtpreset.
2. Choose Into voices 1–8 or Into voices 9–16, then pick the file.

Each drum goes into both the A and B side of its voice. The status line tells you how many drums loaded, and whether any were skipped.

Export

• Export voice .mtdrum saves the picked voice as a single drum. A Microtonic drum has no morph pair, so only the A side is saved.
• Export kit .mtpreset saves all 16 voices (their A sides). Microtonic itself loads 8 channels, so it uses the first 8. The full 16 come back when you import the file into PO-PatchStudio.

On desktop, exports save to your Downloads folder. Patterns aren’t included.

When you’re happy with the sounds, send them to the PO-32.
