bipluk brings zero-install Web MIDI SysEx backup to 80s/90s synthesizers in Chrome and Edge
↗
bipluk is a browser-native SysEx librarian that uses the Web MIDI API to back up, organize, and restore vintage synthesizer patches without installing desktop software or drivers.
For engineers working with vintage hardware, this eliminates the driver configuration and manual .syx file management that desktop tools like MIDI-OX require. The tool reads patch names directly from hardware RAM registers via a hex-to-ASCII parser and supports 83+ synthesizers. It offers a free tier and a $49 one-time lifetime tier, undercutting desktop librarians that often cost $200+.

bipluk uses the Web MIDI API to connect to vintage synths through a standard USB-to-MIDI adapter inside Chrome or Edge with zero driver installation.
A hex-to-ASCII parser extracts patch name tags from RAM registers in real-time, and a single-click sync writes entire sound banks back to hardware.
The tool supports 83+ synthesizers and offers a free tier alongside a $49 one-time lifetime access tier with cloud storage and export to .syx.zip, and CSV.
