Ok I know there was talk of using sysex and there is a sysex folder but I can't seem to locate the
"sysex manual".
I want to use sysex to control (mute / solo ) each of the 4 layers from my midi keyboard (Roland A500)
I tried using cc numbers to control the Amp level of each layer, but it doesn't seem to work right all the time,
especially with randomized patches- (even after copying cords from a template patch)- Also I'd rather not use
up 4 CCs for this task.
SO I want to use sysex - Ideally through the Layer Solo parameter, but any other way would be fine with me.
Anyone have any pointers for me, or at least a link to the sysex codes ?
I used to do this back in the day with an Axcess Mapper which could capture sysex from my roland synths
that would transmit sysex when you moved a slider, but I don't think the CS does that, right?
My old Roland D50 had 4 dedicated switches on the panel for this - it would be cool to mod the CS to have
those 4 switches for the 4 layers.
thanks

PS the Randomize preset feature doesn't seem completely random - does anyone know how it works exactly?
thanks. I like it because it steers me a little - I have ADD I think. - love to program patches but get lost for hours going in tangents.
