Title: Any chance we can get the secret SYSEX dump request for a project?
Post by: atte on March 28, 2018, 10:33:31 am

Well title says it all.

I run linux, and it’s a drag to have to start a virtual machine to run MMC just to save a project on the computer...

Hi atte,
Unfortunately, there more than one SysEx to be sent. The protocol require a lot of messages and acknowledges and is not as easy as sending a message requesting for a dump. It may be a good idea to develop a simple dump request in the future. I would be useful in order to store/load projects and pattern in/from a DAW or whatever.

Arturia does not provide the SysEx list (that may be sniffed easily if one wants) because a bad handling may "damage" the device (memory corruption, pad calibration, ...).

Regards,
Y.

I kind of had the feeling this was the problem. Would be awesome with a dump request message in the (near?) future...

Look towards the end of any old Roland manual for inspiration!!!
