MIDI EXCLUSIVE CODES
This
section
is highly
téchnical
and intended only for
computer
freaks
and
other
such fiends planning on writing
their
own
MIDI
software.
Normal
mortals,
who become faint when confronted
with
esoteric codes
and are frightened of beirtg bitten
by
all these bytes,
can cheerfully
ignore
the
following,
and
get on with
making
music!~
Roll
over
Beethoven!
..__
As for you freaks: before we get down to the dirty details, we have to
point out that you'll pass the li~its of the HEMDRY
PROTECT switch
as
soon
as
you
start such direct manipulation
of
MIDI
data •.
You're
therefore advised to dump all your precious
Patch
and Sequencé data to
tape BEFORE entering the wonderful world of MIDI code sequences!
The
following text uses the binary representation for MIDI codes
and
data,
where appropriate. Other values are given in hexadecimal; these
are identified
by
a trailing H (e.g. 25H),
MIDI
SYSTEM
EXCLUSIVE CODES
The
KASTER KEYBOARD must receive the follo~ing Code-String,
