MIDI SysEx to XL-1   Message List

Re: MIDI SysEx to XL-1

USING CONTINUOUS CONTROLLERS:

If you have a controller with 16 sliders and you want to use them to
mix 16 channels on your XL-1 via midi volume (for example), simply
set your controllers to send volume data (CC#7)--one slider for each
midi channel.

USING SYSEX:

If you want to uses sysex to change the master arp pattern on the
fly (only if your controller can send out sysex), here's the sysex
command:

F0 18 0F dd 55 01 02 03 05 yy yy F7

where dd = the sysex device ID of your unit,
and where yy = the number of the arp pattern you want--from 00--63.
[Note: all numbers above are in hex.]

Example:

F0 18 0F 00 55 01 02 03 05 63 00 F7

If your controller cannot send out sysex, you can use preset
patchcords to have a controller alter the following:
ArpRate
ArpExten
ArpVel
ArpGate
ArpIntvl
as well as various Beats parameters.

Hope this helps.

When you say "the manual" do you mean the SysEx manual where the MULTIMODE VOLUME, for instance, is parameter 131. If so, then you would need to send a system...

I agree with Keith. For what you want you might not need to use sysex. It depends on what you are trying to do. Look in the XL-1 manualy (or any P2K based...

OK, thank you, that confirms a lot of my experiments with the XL-1 now. I see that SysEx is a little too complex for the external controller to send out...

Hi, thanks, that's exactly what I meant and then I also understood it was a SysEx message to do it that way, but simpler through CC#7. Very complicated to...
