Send Sysex values via potentiometer

[FantomXR]

Hey,

I never worked with Sysex yet, but now I want to control an oberheim synth which only reacts on Sysex.

It's clear to me how to send a defined Sysex string with a button. But how to send the same string with increasing / decreasing values with a pot?

Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Chris.

Hi Chris!

 

You have to replace the byte which you want to control via a pot with "^val"

For example

stream="0xf0 0x11 0x22 0x33 ^val 0xf7"

will send this string: 0xf0 0x11 0x22 0x33 the value (from the pot) 0xf7

 

Best regards

I have another question regarding Sysex:

Is midibox able to "learn" SysEx commands via "MIDI"-learn or do I have to put in the sysex-strings by myself?

[TK.]

No, there is no MIDI Learn function for SysEx, and I'm not planning to add this.

Thanks,
