so after emailing AJ & Ketron asking for sysex messages to be able to access all of AUDYA 4/5's functions externally via controller...

i get an email with this .pdf from AJ

thank you AJ/Ketron for your excellent customer assistance

so i thought i'd share it with all my fellow synthzoners (with AJ's permission of course)

so here it is: http://www.box.net/shared/esr62ilaxi

Lee,
Looked it over...seems pretty complete...I think your good to go.
Just need a controller that will provide programming ability for all of the physical controls to send correct sysex.

Good support from Ketron!

I am anxious to see how this works out.

Lee S.

can someone who knows a little sysex,
please verify one thing...
with this AUDYA pdf document...

say i want to choose the "BREAK" function of the AUDYA4, with an external controller

i guess i'd goto page 3 of this sysex pdf document (for AUDYA),

and send these 2 sysex codes consecutively from my controller to my AUDYA4: ???

F0 26H 7CH 03H 6ch 7FH F7H
F0 26H 7CH 03H 6ch 00H F7H

is this correct?

so i need to send 2 consecutive sysex codes
as i need one for "button pressed",
and another for button "released" ???

thanks in advance...

Lee,
Looking at the pdf it sure seems that way.
That is what I would try...with my Korg you just send the button on.
Lee S.

leeboy,

you think with ketron A4/novation controller we have to send button pressed AND released ?

[This message has been edited by leezone (edited 09-16-2010).]

perhaps my buttons on Novation need to be in "Momentary" Mode

"...In 'Momentary' mode one value is sent when the button is pressed, and a second value is sent when it's released."

Yes, that sounds like a plan.
The novation is prety sweet!
Lee S.

it's sweet does a lot, pretty complicated,
but will it do what i want it to do?

i have put a call into novation tech,

yes Diki, i will make sure BEFORE i buy

duh,

actually i will try on my Zero XL (original)

if it works there, it should also on the XL MK2's...

anyone know how to go about inputting these strings of numbers,
i did read manual, but i tell you,
it's not easy, and does not get in detail on this

Lee,
Install the PC based editor and go from there...much easier than doing it on the device. It allows you to setup a template & download it to the novation.

There will be a learning curve.
