Sysex tutorials -

2004-05-11 by Robert Krueger

Looks like the Edirol boards are SYSEX programmable.  So I've spent the last
couple hours trying to figure out how to read what these Evolver sysex
parameters mean.

Follow me if you can and hopefully you can help me out.  And in the process,
help others out there who want this as well.

Page 46 shows the System Exclusive messages for PROGRAM PARAMETERS,
SEQUENCER PARAMETERS, MAIN PARAMETERS, etc...

So I'm trying to assign Filter Frequency.  So I need Program Parameters
sysex.  I fill in the first 5 rows of bytes on page 46 for Program
Parameters.  Now I need the parameter number for filter freq.

Page 55 shows that Filter Frequency is Program Parameter #16...  Page 46
again shows that to enter that parameter number,  it needs to be in the
format of :

0vvv vvvv.

My question is,  what the heck are the V's for?  Is it just saying the
parameter is variable, based on the parameter number?  So since my paramter
# is 16,  my hex code should be 0000 0010 ??

And then finally,  what the heck is LS Nibble and MS Nibble for the next few
lines of code??
