Re: [CZsynth] Re: Midiox settings to transmit and receive syx file to the Casio VZ1

2011-05-30 by Lee Borrell

My site appears to be back online:
http://templarseries.atspace.com/cz.html
The details are in CZinfo and manual and DEFEATING HANDSHAKING links - those details I have used with the 101 and 230s and they do work - it is just a matter of getting your head around it.As was said here - if there is a dump from keyboard protocol - use that - if not (as with the CZ101) then you have to prompt the keyboard from the MIDI in socket by sending a "Send SYSx" code - and wait for the reception from the midi out.With MIDI ox I use TWO instances of the program at once - first set up one version to ONLY receieve on from the OUT socket of the keyboard and set it up ready to get SYSX manually.
Use the other version to ONLY transmit (in the devices dialogue) and send the prompt from this instance of the program,and the other instance will pick up the SYSx code from the 101. From there,dump it as a SYSx file to the PC and from then on you can send it back to the keyboard with no further messing about - it will accept the SYSx without any handshaking. Hope that helps.

      Your setup will be based on (1) your internal VZ settings and (2) your midi connections between the VZ and your PC. I believe that once you have those set up correctly, you just go into sysex mode in midi-ox and trigger the bulk dump from the VZ itself. I suppose you could trigger the dumps from midi-ox by inputting the correct sysex command, but (1) that's more work and (2) it would depend on your internal VZ settings.



Oh. You asked about the cz-101. Silly me; I saw that the thread was about the VZ!!!



Never Mind.
