Re: MIDI ECHO can someone help

2006-01-28 by steve_the_composer

I will dissect your message into parts that make sense to me and 
parts that make no sense to me.  I will also ask questions and make 
comments to try to figure out what you are trying to do with your E-
Mu.

Other ways to try to understand your questions(s) include:
(1) State specifically what you are trying to do.
(2) Restate your question(s) using different words.

There are several people here who might be able to help you do what 
you want, but--at least to me--it is unclear what you are trying to 
do. I hope the following helps.

Yes, there is "code" in the E-Mu.

This makes no sense to me. Prevents what sort of thing? If you 
mean "prevents a user from going beyond the E-Mu's parameters," what 
do you want to try to do that you cannot seem to do using the E-Mu's 
parameters?

This makes no sense to me since you are not sending anything out of  
your E-Mu--except for audio (and I assume you are getting audio from 
your E-Mu). Your question "what exactly gets sent out" would make 
sense to me if you were sending midi data out to another device.  I 
guess my question here is: Sent out from where TO where?

Are you talking about the effects processor? If not what?

Wait a second--you said you are not using external gear.  What is 
your native language? Perhaps something is being lost in translation?

What is "it?" The E-Mu or external gear that you are not using?

Most synth gear (including E-Mus) correctly interpret sysex.

Again, is "it" the E-Mu or external gear that you are not using?

HUH??????? Leave the sysex data?????????

> only as note on or off

Note on and note off data are not system exclusive data.  Are you 
asking if sysex data will mess up note on/off data?

I understand the start of this question.

> so that it acts as though it

By "it" do you mean the rechannelized track? Does "it" in the second 
half of the above mean the same thing as "it" in the first half?

Not sure what you mean by this (above).

Not sure what you mean by this (above) either.

Are you talking about the effects processor? If not, what do you 
mean by "effect information?"
