Bcn44 with 2 variables

Bcn44 with 2 variables

2009-03-10 by philk22002

Hello
is it possible to send 2 variables of 4 bits with the Bcn44 ?

the message with Bcr2000 for mys Kenton Pro solo MKII
".tx $F0 $00 $20 $13 $03 $20 14 1 val0.3 val4.7 $F7 "


and structure of the sysex message to kenton

  "The Pro-SOLO mkII can be controlled by Sysex messages in the following
format:
The first five bytes of sysex for the Pro-SOLO mkII are always the same
for all data types
[ 1] 0F0h - Sysex command
[ 2] 00h - Company ident first byte
[ 3] 20h - Company ident second byte
[ 4] 13h - Company ident third byte
[ 5] 03h - Product code – Pro-SOLO
[ 6 ] 0dddnnnn - where ddd is the data type and nnnn is the device number
where ddd = 010 = data change (so for device #1, this byte = 20h)
[ 7] 0000uuuu - where uuuu = low 4 bits of parameter address
[ 8] 0000hhhh - where hhhh = high 4 bits of parameter address
[ 9] 0000uuuu - where uuuu = low 4 bits of data
[ 10 ] 0000hhhh - where hhhh = high 4 bits of data
[ 11 ] 0F7h - end of exclusive ) "

thank you

I'm not sure whether the LENGTH as such is the problem here:
in the course of developing a BCN44 editor, last week I tried to make the BCN44 "learn" EXTREMELY short SysEx messages like F0 7F F7 or F0 F7, but even those failed, so I've started to suspect
that the BCN44 simply doesn't accept ANY SysEx messages (in
contradiction with a claim in the manual).
If anyone HAS succeeded in teaching the BCN44 SysEx messages,
please let me know.

By the way: I've been working very hard to finish the BCN44 editor
in recent days. I'm hoping to release the first version next week, so stay tuned...

Mark.

Do you mean actual SysEx messages (rather than channel messages like Control Change)? Can you give some examples?
