Re: MKS-50 Preset: Troubleshooting

2008-05-06 by rpcfender

I had another look at the preset. There is a lot of stuff at the eand
that will set a lot of presets to a blank preset.

$preset
  .name '                        '
  .snapshot off
  .request off
  .egroups 4
  .fkeys on
  .lock off
  .init
$store 24
$preset
  .name '                        '
  .snapshot off
  .request off
  .egroups 4
  .fkeys on
  .lock off
  .init
$store 25
etc...
I'm not sure how it happened, but perhaps toorglick (or Mark can have
a look at it looks like it was generated in the BC Manager).

Perhaps we can start a new preset.
Here is the start of the old preset (modified) without the global
stuff ....

$rev R1 
$preset
  .name 'Roland MKS-50           '
  .snapshot off
  .request off
  .egroups 4
  .fkeys on
  .lock off
  .init
$encoder 1
  .showvalue on
  .mode 1dot
  .resolution 96 96 96 96
  .default 0
  .minmax 0 127
  .tx $F0 $41 $36 $06 $23 $20 $01 $18 val $F7
$end

$36 = individual tone parameter (IPR)
$06 = (Midi Channel - 1) change it from 00 to $0F
$23 = Format type MKS-50 (plus  others)
$20 = level
$01 = Group number
$18 = Parameter number ($18 = 24 = LFO Rate)

This should make the top left encoder (select 1 on the encoder groups
- top right) your LFO Rate controller (Midi ch7).
Cut and paste the above code (from $rev R1 to $end) and send it to the
BCR. 
It won't save it to a preset. It will just sit in the edit buffer and
work till you turn the BCR off or change presets.

Let me know how you get on.

All the best
Royce
