Re: [L-OT] Understanding SYSEX

2001-04-18 by Kool Musick

Logic is not very good for this kind of thing.

Try using MIDI Ox which is quite a nice MIDI management programme and will 
allow you to examine, write, store and such like sysex strings. It's also 
free!! Helps a lot for examining and messing about with MIDI and sysex data.
