Maybe often used manufacture IDs, eg.

Using one output just for a synth that receives SysEx on real-time e.g. to control it's filters isn't a problem for standard MIDInterfaces too, but there's another issue. Not all Sequencers have an option to edit SysEx. If your device can't send e.g. SysEx for filters, but only receive such data, you're not able to use this functions. Nearly every sequencer is able to transform controllers, e.g. you sent 1 (modulation wheel) and transform it to 6 (Data Byte) for the receiving device. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
