Title: Need to map 1 data byte -> lsb msb
Post by Agent420 on May 25^th, 2007, 8:49am

Hello, forum newb here ;)

I have a device that accepts sysex cmds to control various parameters. I have a BCR2000 midi knob box that sends std CC msgs. The problem is the device sysex msg passes parameter value data in 2 byte format, Lo - Hi, and the std CC msg passes value data as 1 byte.

Is there an easy way that I am overlooking to convert 1 byte data into 2 byte data formats, or am I looking at some scripting?

edit -

Example: incoming CC data is $EF, I need to get 0F 0E to pass in sysex packet...

Scripting - you'll want to be creating the entire SysEx packet, I would imagine. Have a read through the scripting forum, I think there might be an example there already.

Thanks for the reply. After a weekend of experimenting, I see that scripting is the way to go. I saw the thread you refer to and it was quiate helpful.

Thanks again.
