KingKorg Sysex

[maurizio.dececco]

Hallo,

May be i have not studied the KingKorg manual, but i haven't found the sysex specification.
Any information about it ? I am looking for a way to get the synth edit buffer out.

Yes, i am writing software, and would like to do it for the KingKorg. No, it is not an editor (who need a software editor with all these knobs ?).

Mostly, it is an excuse to buy a KingKorg for my home studio :->

Thanks,
Maurizio

PS: i tried to contact Korg support, got no answer yet.

There are a few SYSEX messages in the KK parameter guide on the Korg website.

Most of the messages appear to be #CC, which may or may not do what you are looking for.

You may use MIDIOX and the Korg Librarian to capture some messages.

I also contacted support asking for SYSEX documentation for the KK, and got no response. I think a computer editor, while not necessary, could still help to "see" a full patch and its routings at a glance rather than wading through the menu. I will write one if I can get the information.

Please contact me if you somehow manage to get the documentation.

Similarly interested in a full SysEx document as I'm writing an app - any more help available?

There are still a few key pieces of information missing from it... mostly, that the different oscillator types are enumerated but it never defines the enumeration. For example:

When OSCType is "Saw,Triangle,Sine" 00~7F : Waveform

But it never tells you the values for OSCType. It only says:

*4-2 : 00 : Off
01~20 : Analog
21~60 : DWGS
61~7E : PCM
7F : Mic In


So, I could surmise that OSCTYPE = "Saw" is one of the values from 01-20, but don't know immediately which value = "Saw". IF the values from page 8 of the Parameter Guide align, then I would know that the value for Saw = 01, Triangle = 03, Sin = 04, etc. This is probably the case, but if anyone can validate that it is true, it would be nice

Thanks to Scott to provide the data, and thanks to rbeach to post the link.

I am doing an iPad application; first version will work with the Waldorf Blofeld, but it get some interest i will probably do a version for the KingKorg
(so that i have an excuse for buying it .

I propose to continue to use this thread to exchange the results of our tests and the answer we find :->
