If I look in the patch script for Cubase for my SC 88, it has the following:īank Select 14 Bit Value: 0 Valid Range: 0 - 16383 MIDI Message Bytes: B0 0 0 B0 20 0 These are SysEx messages from my Roland A-Pro editor software so that's why there are things like the SS, DT and S1 in there.īut I'm thinking all I have to do is change the correct '4X' number to '5X'.īut for a patch change to access all the GS sounds I'd need MSB/LSB and patch change message I think - unless a single SysEx message can get you to the right sound? That leads me to believe I could take something like the message I used to control Trem Rate on a digital effect:Īnd change the number after the SS to 50?

In other words using the starting address 50 00 00 means that the data will be passed to the Parts of the other Group than the MIDI IN that the data was received at.' For example, the data at starting address 40 00 00 will be passed to Group A Parts, and the data starting at adress 50 00 00 received at the same MIDI in will be passed to Group B Parts. In this case it is necessary to use address 50 00 00. 'However it is also possible for the SC -88ST Pro to receive exclusive data for all 32 parts at a single MIDI IN. So what I wanted to do was press a button on the Controller that's plugged into MIDI In A, but have it change the patches on the 'B synth'. I actually can send patch changes to the 'B synth' with the old synth as well, but the problem is I can only get to the 128 GM patches (which actually aren't the normal GM ones on the Sound Canvas) and the buttons on that synth are so bad they may or may not work at any given time - wearing out.

I can send patch changes to the 'A synth' with the controller - already set up to do that (thanks to you guys!). I know the two will play each of the inputs that way, no problem.

I want to plug my main controller into MIDI In A, and the other synth into MIDI In B. So what I want to do is use an older 61 key synth. My problem is, I need a 61 key and one of my controllers is 49. I can connect two controllers to it and use both of them to select patches on each of the internal synths. Ordinarily, when you send any MIDI message into MIDI IN A, it plays 'synth A', and of course the same with In B playing 'synth B'. In A and In B, and it's essentially like 2 synths in one box. Hey guys, some of you helped me figure out the sysex messages to send patch changes to my SC88ST Pro and I'm hoping you can help with this:
