Somthing defanetly will happen.

But its not going to be the same sound if the 2 synths have different parameters.

For example if "ABC123"s parameter 20 means cutoff? How would that sound on a virus.

This is what I feared.

Wouldn't it be fekking cool if there were some standardization of such parameters?

Maybe not for hardware manufacturers...

Well anyway the patch wouldn?t sound the same at all due to the different components and DSP-programming. Futhermore "synth A" maybe has 2 LFO?s and "synth B" has 3 LFO?s (and different destinations), "synth A" has 2 oscilators and "synth B" has 3 oscilators, maybe the mod-matrix is more extensive in "synth A" than "synth B", etc. etc. etc...

No, it really wouldn't work at all. System Exclusive data, as implied by the term, is exclusive to the machine you're dealing with, and the OS on that machine. It would be sort of like dumping an executable set of instructions for Windows into OS X. There's a lot more to a patch than simple MIDI that could be interpreted by any synth. However, people have had the idea before of a universal system, hence: General MIDI. And we know how that sounds...
