Benefits of Using Blank Patch Sheets for Synthesizer Sound Design

Organization For Prolific Producers

Managing multiple tracks and ideas at once can be challenging. The Blank Patch Sheets Notebook series is an excellent tool to help you keep track of the moving parts. These notebooks can help you stay organized and keep track of the settings you use in each song.

A user manual titled 'Blank Patch Sheets for the Elektron Model:Cycles Groovebox' is placed on top of a music production device, the Elektron Model:Cycles groovebox, which has various knobs and buttons.

Create a Recipe Book

Many synths have a wide range of sounds and textures they can produce, from percussion to pads and plucks. Creating a "Kick recipe" for quick reference can save time in the studio and help you focus on finishing ideas with less fiddling.

Quick Reference Tool

(Not available in every book from the series; see individual product descriptions on Amazon for details.)

Some of the Blank Patch Sheet Notebooks have additional quick reference pages for features in the manual that may be out of reach. For example, the Model: Cycles and Samples books have tables describing the delay and LFO settings.

A Sound Design Tool

Try designing a patch on paper and testing it on your synth for new and unexpected ideas. Make random marks or take a little more time to imagine how your choices affect the sound. Make this a regular exercise, and you'll better understand your synthesizer in no time.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Will you create patch sheets for a synth that's not listed in the current lineup?

Yes, feel free to reach out to me through the contact form on my personal website or DM me on Instagram with your requests. Creating these patch sheets takes considerable work, so the turnaround time is slow, and I prefer to do them in batches. So I won't make one at a time. It's better if I make at least 5-10 at a time.

Q: Can I order the notebooks wholesale or in bulk?

A: No, all notebooks are printed on demand through Amazon, and I don’t have the ability to order in bulk or offer any discounts.

Q: Why don’t the notebooks come in spiral binding?

A: Unfortunately, Amazon does not provide spiral-bound notebook options for its print-on-demand services. I would love all the notebooks to be spiral-bound. If they ever add that I’ll be switching all notebooks over tot hat format, but I doubt they will.

Q: Why are the printables more expensive on Etsy than on your site?

A: Etsy charges a listing fee, so the price difference between Etsy and my site covers those fees. I have printables listed there because some people search for these types of assets on Etsy instead of just using Google, and never discover this site. Feel free to use this site for a better prices and a larger selection.

Q: Are the patch sheets accurate to the real synth?

A: They’re not official manufacturer documents — they’re indie-made, custom-designed diagrams based on the real workflow of each device. No brand logos or trademarks are used, so they don’t match 110%, but they’re representative.

Q: Are you affiliated with any synth manufacturers?

A: No — Blank Patch Sheets is an independent project made by a synth user, for synth users. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by any manufacturers.

Q: Why 6”x9” size? Can I get a bigger notebook?

A: I felt the 6”x9” size was the most convenient for people who have multiple notebooks and want to keep them in a drawer. Offering multiple sizes would make the production process extremely difficult to manage.

A: Amazon handles all returns and replacements for physical notebooks. The digital downloads are non-refundable. Etsy handles returns and replacements for stickers.

Q: Can I return or exchange a notebook?

Q: Why are the diagrams in a light grey ink? Can they be darker?

A: I designed the diagrams to use light grey prints so that your markings in pencil or black ink would easily stand out, helping you read the most critical part, your settings. Since you likely own the synth, you're getting a diagram. I also assume you can reference the actual device when text is too hard to read, and that you know which knob or switch is assigned to each function.

Q: Do you offer custom patch sheets or custom notebooks?

A: If you want to commission me to create a notebook for you, reach out to me through the contact page. Otherwise the best I can do is add your request to my to-do-list as stated above.

What people named David Sparks are saying…

“Why not spend more time being creative and writing music instead of trying to remember what patch you used 10 days ago? This is a no-brainer.”

— Me

“Stop struggling to recapture the vibe from the other night's jam design session in vain. Instead, use a Patch Sheets notebook to keep details about your custom patches.”
