4 Button controller sends SysEx

[John_Swenson]

Its been a while since I've been in midibox land, so I don't remember the answer to this.

I have a hard disk recorder I want to run remotely, the functions I want to control use SysEx messages.

So what I want to build is a little  box with 4 buttons that I can program to output SysEx messages.

Can I do this with one of the  canned applications? (Midibox64 etc)

I could write a custom MIOS program to easily do this, but if the functionality already exists why reinvent the wheel.

Thanks,

Take a look at the meta event function of the MidiBox (mb64_meta.inc or mb64e_meta.inc).

Thanks, but it looks like I'm going to have to program this one, I just found out the message has to be different each time its sent and there is a checksum that has to be computed.

I guess its time to try out the C interface!

Yes, with the C interface the implementation should be easier than programming MB64 meta events
