#Mks 70 sysex librarian Patch#

So after sending a program change, I would then request that program number and parse it. I assume all the following are just the actual values of the params?ģ. After the intro (F0 41 42 00 20) it continues with 1C (28). I assume this is ONE patch? And not all of the ones in the current bank? (not sure)Ģ. In normal operation, 16 DATs are totally sent for all 'bank's (1 - 8).' These parameters are sent in sequence of the 'Tone Number's and 'Patch Number's.

Each data set consists of 62 bytes total - 39 bytes for Tone Parameters of a number and 23 bytes for Patch Parameters of the same number.

Sending that to the MKS-80, the mks replies with what the manual describes as '5.1.3 Data (DAT)', which is 16 messages.įrom the manual: 'Each DAT message consists of 4 sets of the Patch and Tone data. ' really confuses me, as this sequence is not found in the spec. 'When the 'Patch Number' is changed while the MIDI FUNCTION is set at III, the following exclusive messages ( A through E ) are sent in sequence.' which doesn't seem to be the case.

Strangely enough the sysex specs imho states differently, under 3.3. One example from Midi-OX of what the MKS sends after having received a prg change:ġ6179465 2- 240 Buffer: 74 Bytes System Exclusive

I saw lots of older hints about this here in the forum but is there anything new from the last couple of years which I should be using for this? How would you approach this today? The mks-80 sends it's current preset data as sysex when receiving a program change, so my next step (besides tidying up and making it look more nicely) would be to try to gather, parse and then feed that data into the dials etc to have the correct representation of the patch visually shown. Is there anything you see in my device which seems wrong to you? Anything that could be done better or more efficient?ģ. I know the patches may be messy for most, but with all those lines it makes it easier for me to debug things.
