. in getting in touch w/my inner masochist i thought it would be cool to use a Korg padKONTROL w/modul8 - but have it act a little more like a monome/lanuchPad by leaving buttons lit when pressed then turning off
. out of the box, the padKONTROL doesn't really support this behaviour... unless it's in 'native control' ( http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/ ... hp?t=22466 ) - basically, reducing communication to sysex strings.
. cool
. so, after an hour or so of plodding along and finally getting the unit into 'native control' mode (using SysEx Library and and 0xED) - i have (some) success!
. it's transmitting sysex and modul8 is reading it - but not correctly. when i watch DirectEvent() and press and release the 'KNOB 1 ASSIGN' and 'KNOB 2 ASSIGN' buttons modul8 gives me this:
MIDI {'timestamp': 7275436024536.0, 'channel': 1, 'param1': 66, 'message': 'SYSTEM', 'rawEvent': 240, 'param2': 64}
MIDI {'timestamp': 7275804131571.0, 'channel': 1, 'param1': 66, 'message': 'SYSTEM', 'rawEvent': 240, 'param2': 64}
MIDI {'timestamp': 7298827187293.0, 'channel': 1, 'param1': 66, 'message': 'SYSTEM', 'rawEvent': 240, 'param2': 64}
MIDI {'timestamp': 7299195008843.0, 'channel': 1, 'param1': 66, 'message': 'SYSTEM', 'rawEvent': 240, 'param2': 64}
. looking at the sysex in MIDIMonitor, i see :
00 F0 42 40 6E 08 48 0D 7F F7
00 F0 42 40 6E 08 48 0D 00 F7
00 F0 42 40 6E 08 48 0E 7F F7
00 F0 42 40 6E 08 48 0E 00 F7
. so, it looks like modul8 isn't really translating the message correctly ?
. also, if I wanted to send sysex to the padKONTROL to put it 'native mode' (f0 42 40 6e 08 00 00 01 F7) how would i construct the modul8.sendMidi message?
. or, is this thread http://www.garagecube.com/forum/viewtop ... ight=sysex the state of sysex in modul8 ?
