If you are using sysex to chat with your synth and you want to update the BC to reflect the new parameter values when selecting a new preset then you are out of luck. The BC will only update the value on a Fader, Encoder or button if it has been programed with an easypar command as as I recall it needs to be CC message. This is such a common request. What you need to do is have a PC/Mac in between the BC and the synth. The BC -> PC and PC -> BC Midi messages need to be CC The PC -> Synth and Synth -> PC would be the sysex side. I thought I would write such a program, but it very difficult (for me at least) to write a program that is general enough to handle the sysex side for a lot of different synths. Any programmers looking for a cool app to do?? All the best Royce --- In bc2000@yahoogroups.com, "ajawdokimov" <ajawdokimov@...> wrote:
