Gordon is correct - the MIDI standard is 31.25 Kb - if there was any other speed,the MIDI equipment would not be able to read the signal- the baud rate is part of what is defined in a PROTOCOL - I should know - I teach IT! ________________________________ From: Gordon JC Pearce <gordon@...> To: CZsynth@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, 22 August 2013, 8:45 Subject: Re: [CZsynth] Speed of sysex transfer On Thu, Aug 22, 2013 at 06:21:26AM -0000, fulfil_objective wrote: > Hi Steve, > > I think you are too focused on these vintage numbers like 31250 bps and 115200 bps. Transferring sysex by USB and MIDI are not limited to these old numbers. USB enables speeds that are hundreds or thousands of times faster than these numbers. In fact, greatly higher speeds are touted as one of the benefits of a USB MIDI device (along with multiple streams). Bullshit. MIDI transfers data at 31250bps. It doesn't matter how the interface is connected to the host or device, MIDI data is by definition 31250bps. The interface may be able to talk to the PC faster than that, but you cannot send it to the target device at anything other than 31250bps. -- Gordonjcp MM0YEQ [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
