Sysex string for drum part levels

[lenners]

Hi guys

need some help with sysex

I would like to control the drum part volumes i.e. kick volume, snare, hi hat etc..
via sysex messages using the roland pro500 midi board
as you can imagine, this would be quite handy indeed

Ive had a look at the manual but I cant seem to be able to work it out at all.
Ive learned a lot from the info in this forum & have successfully setup strings using the
advice given here but I cant seem to work out the individual drum part levels

any help would be awesome
thanks

Hi,

I know this post was from long ago but I'm working on something similar. I don't have the Sysex values specifically for controlling the level of each drum part but there are clear NRPNs for this in the Midi implementation guide. Perhaps you could either use these NRPNs or if you must have sysex convert them (if that's possible.)

To control the individual levels for each drum part (as well as cutoff, resonance, and envelope) use these NRPNs and specify the LSB (least significant bit) or note value from 36 to 72 with 36 being the lowest (furthest left) key on the keyboard and 72 the highest (furthest right).

Drum Kit
Parameter | Note | Controller Number | Value
--------------------+-----------+-------------------------------+---------
Cutoff | 36 - 72 | NRPN MSB:89, LSB:Note | 0 - 127
Resonance | 36 - 72 | NRPN MSB:92, LSB:Note | 0 - 127
Level | 36 - 72 | NRPN MSB:64, LSB:Note | 0 - 127
Envelope | 36 - 72 | NRPN MSB:119, LSB:Note| 0 - 127
