Help with building Roland MC-808 .ini file

2014-12-06 by njeremic@...

Hi group

im in the work of building a definition file (.ini) for Roland MC-808. I just uploaded the first version to the files area, so other can use it.

But i need help with defining a sysex string for values bigger than 127...

example that works in my ini file:

11 00 20 00 | 00 - 7F | val ; Tone 1 Level(0 - 127)

now looking at the roland documentation, im trying to change the waveform of tone 1 and its value is 0-662, and sysex string has to be longer

;11 00 20 2C 00 00 00 | 00 - 7F | val ; Tone 1 Wave (0 - 622) - does not realy work

but this changes only the 1st 16 waveforms - so just last byte u guess but i need to change the other bytes as well - and im stuck :(

can i program somehow 1 knob from 0-662 and send it to my 808?

can somebody please point me how to do this?

i uploaded the midi implementation chart also in the folder, on page 12 there is Wave Number L (Mono) - so this one i need.

thanx a lots

niko
