Title: Midi-ox to figure out my system?
Post by vulcan750 on Aug 20^th, 2001, 7:51pm

Hi Jamie:

What a logically designed and comprehensive program, (seems like an oxymoron to say that). Thanks for all the hard work, and obvious pride in quality. :)

My objective is to become knowledgeable in how to send any executable info that my PSR-540 is capable of from cakewalk Pro-audio 9. For instance, I have been struggling with how to figure out simply to send a sysex at the beginning of each program to turn the reverb off, as I use outboard gear for that. I am guessing that I can use midi-ox to determine the format of various sysex messages that the psr uses (I can't decipher the manual), and from monitoring the psr's output, figure out how to do other stuff.

Am I way off course, or am I on the right track?

Thanks

;D

You're definitely on the right track ;)

To turn off Reverb in a standard MIDI way (SysEx is device specific by it's very design), try sending controller 91 (Reverb Depth), and set the value to 0.

You can test this in MIDI-OX by using the Control Panel (View | Control Panel...). Choose Controller Event: Reverb Depth. Check Send All Channels [x], set the Value to 0 and Press Send.
