Sending transpose sysex for Organ sounds

Post by RockinRolie »

Hi!

I’m battling my new V-combo VR730 to make it work with my Soleman midi foot pedal. I’ve figured some things out. I really would like to be able to send a midi message to transpose my lead organ patch for a particular song. I got the sysex to work great but not for the organ sounds. It transposes all the synth and piano patches but it needs something special for the organ “engine” if it can work at all. Any one know how? If you do, please be as detailed as possible. I have had to learn and relearn so much about MIDI and hexadecimal - I know for some people this is must be easier to understand. I appreciate your help!!

PS: if you also know how to change organ patches, I can only change synth and piano programs, that would be welcome too! I’ll send you a nice fruit basket. Or some Hobnobs…

Try the Master Coarse Tuning message:
F0H 7FH 7FH 04H 04H 00H tt F7H
where "tt" is the transpose rate (-24..+24 semitones).

Examples:
tt = 28H: -24 semitone transpose.
.
.
tt = 3FH: -1 semitone transpose.
tt = 40H: 0 semitone transpose.
tt = 41H: +1 semitone transpose.
.
.
tt = 58H: +24 semitone transpose.
