Re: [xl7] CC# or sysex string needed to Play/Stop the CS?

2005-05-27 by Szonyi Andras

Command Stations can receive and transmit the general start/stop 
MIDI messages. (I have a keyboard with built in basic MIDI functions,
like START/STOP, and it can controll the XX-7 without any synchronizing.)


Searched for a description for general midi sysex commands, I found this:

SysEx Command [Type : String] : SysEx Command to send.
Usage : The SysEx Command string must not contain the SysEx Start (F0) and 
SysEx Stop (F7) bytes which will be automatically added by the MxM.
Hexadecimal characters of the SysEx message must be preceded by the '!' 
character. For example, to send the MIDI Machine Control "Stop" command 
for device 1(F0 7F 00 06 01 F7), type the following string 
:"!7F!00!06!01".


Other way is to midimonitoring that device's output which should controll
the command station.
