In the past few days I've made it through about 70% of the TB library of FI sounds. It's been a task and I still have some of the bigger files to dig into. Right now I've got 104 patches in my 'like' file...which will probably end up around 150 by the time I'm done. I'll then compare duplicates of common ones to pick the best then winnow it down. This has been a big project. So far many hours...

I guess I’m not easing your burden by constantly adding new ones. :-)

Right now I'm working from a DL of the TB file from a few weeks back. ;) Beyond usable sounds, I'm also keeping an eye on how they track/trigger. There's some cool sounds but if they're laggy and glitchy, they do me no good. I've come to realize the well crafted patches just work better.

Hahaha, I can send you my spreadsheet. It took between 4 and 5 rounds of whittling to get me down to 49 that I have spread across the full library.

I’ve been finding that having the filter track the pitch can often cause lag. Don’t know if anyone else is experiencing that behaviour.

I need to weed my own patches a bit too as some are quite similar. I’m quite pleased with some of the ones I made yesterday.

Link in the first post of the TB patch sharing thread.
Future Impact Patch sharing thread

Each sub folder has a bunch of patches in it. Mine has over 80 in.

Yep. I found the best way to handle is download the entire google docs file to your computer then start going through it. Also, it seems like there's a fair amount of duplication, so be prepared. ;)

I added it to my folder on the share drive. Here's a link -

The file should open on the "Community" tab which has all the patches from the library detailed with their folder, name and then various columns of my ratings and scorings. I never expected this to be for anyone but me so it is chaotic and a bit hard to follow. I have some hidden columns I used for notes too. At the core, I liked the patches tagged with a "Y" in column I and then categorized and ranked and graded in the subsequent columns...I also used colors to determine what I liked. Seems like if you filter on greens in column H you get pretty close to my final list. The other tabs of the spreadsheet were different guides I made as cheat sheets in various stages of using the pedal.

Hey guys I believe someone around the forum rehoused his FI, would you mind sharing some pics?

I saw one once, but as I understand it, the guy who did it had a hard time with it and wasn't looking to do more. He was able to cut the size in half. Would love to do that, but no one willing to that I know of.

Having spend part of my weekend inside my Future Impact, I can say that there's a lot of empty space in that case...but you'd have to keep the two boards in the same formation...due to how the nest together. if it makes sense, the 'front half' (where the two switches are) is empty except for those...and the back half houses the boards. All in all, they're not terribly large, but the jacks, power & midi ports are all surface mount so it would be a pain to mess with.

Flattered to see a bunch of my patches made it into your list.
