Title: Emax (1) Realtime Sysex Control - It works! :-) Post by: micromoog on October 14, 2010, 12:29:57 AM Yesterday i tried to make a little Emax Editor...and it works fine!
It's not complete now, but my favorite parameters are inside. With the RMG-Page of C-LAB Notator (Atari St) you can make it very fast (needs 30min). As slow as Sysex with a Matrix 1000 etc. but it's easy to edit the "Analog area" of the Presets! For "real" realtime it's better to control by CC with MIDI A or B for Cut-Off an Q etc. (http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4106/5080659694_4541b73e4e_b.jpg) Two exampels of the code, one i found at the yahoogroups, that was the inspiration for me to do this: VCF-Envelope Decay (HEX-Code): F0 18 02 1A 00 57 02 29 XX F7 F0 - system exclusive 18 - E-mu id 02 - Emax id 1A - exclusive command to change voice parameter 00 - the lowest key number 57 - the highest key number (87 in decimal) 02 - affect both voices, primary and secondary 29 - Decay-Parameter Filter XX - Value from the fader (0 to 31 in decimal) F7 - end of sysex message VCF-Cut Off (HEX-Code): F0 18 02 1A 00 57 02 1F XX F7 F0 - system exclusive 18 - E-mu id 02 - Emax id 1A - exclusive command to change voice parameter 00 - the lowest key number 57 - the highest key number (87 in decimal) 02 - affect both voices, primary and secondary 1F - Filter cut-off parameter XX - Value from the fader (0 to 120 in decimal) F7 - end of sysex message the specs you can find here: http://www.emulatorarchive.com/assets/PDF/Emax%20MIDI.pdf (http://www.emulatorarchive.com/assets/PDF/Emax%20MIDI.pdf) Title: Re: Emax (1) Realtime Sysex Control - It works! :-) Post by: Elmbeatz on October 14, 2010, 12:48:50 AM Science ;)

Atari doesn't have "Drag'n Drop", maybe you will be faster with windows or mac by creating something like this. You have only to change the parameter# at the string an the "fader"-range (0..15, 0...31, 0...120 etc.). The RMG-Page is a standard tool which is coming with the notator-programm...it's the grandfather of logic's environment. You have only to select a fader and write the string in the Line with the $-Symbol (here it is shown in decimal) and make a comment in the small line above the faders - that's all!

(of course the emax 1 is slow and "stepped" when it comes to synthesizer sounds because of the digital controlled SSM chip ...)
i think i will free my emax 1 from the dust and the Peavey and check if i have the sysex dump for the 1600x somewhere... Is it the same with the emulator II... that if i use a realy slow envelope setting on the VCF and i high resonance that i can "hear" the steps?

The SYSEX specs for Emax-I can be downloaded from Emulatorarchive: http://www.emulatorarchive.com/Manuals/manuals.html (the SYSEX specs for Emax-II, which are slightly different, can be found on the Emax Yahoo group) |
