Korg Krome SysEx Information \ Set List Maker

Post by tda70 »

If anyone is seeking the SysEx MIDI information for the Korg Krome Keyboard to switch between - Program Mode and Combi Mode, please use the following information:

( Korg Krome )
SysEx MIDI Program Mode -
f0 42 30 00 01 15 4e 02 f7

SysEx MIDI COMBI Mode -
f0 42 30 00 01 15 4e 00 f7

Steps:
1. I recommend creating 2 separate MIDI Presets - 1 for Program Mode \ 1 for COMBI Mode

2. Then create separate MIDI Presets for each sound patch that you want to use for a particular song title

3. Example of the MIDI preset should look similar to the following - MSB= 000 \ LSB= 000 which represents the A Bank or 001 which represents the B Bank \ 002 which represents the C Bank \ 003 which represents the D Bank \ 004 which represents the E Bank \ 005 which represents the F Bank - The last segment field = the Program Patch # 000 = Grand Piano and so on....

4. Once you have your MIDI preset configured, your ready to associate the MIDI presets to the songs

5. Go to your Song titles and go into each song detail and navigate down to MIDI Presets

6. Click on the "+" button to add your desired MIDI Preset or Presets

7. Example - Lets say I would like Set List Maker to change to a sound on keyboard to a sound patch from the Program Mode, follow instructions below.

Navigate to the MIDI preset that you indicated for your "Program Mode" MIDI preset, then followed by another MIDI preset that you configured that represents the sound for that particular song title. Just locate the MIDI preset that you previously configured for that song title and associate it and that's it. Same concept applies for when you want to choose a particular sound patch from one of your COMBI patches.

Hi,

So what is the sysex string for changing patch for the following cases:

- Changing patch within a user bank
- Changing patch from Bank A patch 001 to User bank patch 001

Thanks
Pat

I friended a person in this forum who taught me everything I know. Kudos Ed Kolcz ! Below is a simplified explanation, however it will get you started.

Here is an example that I use on my M50. For Krome line 2 is slightly different.
; M50 COMBI A 64 Organ
F0 42 30 00 01 05 4E 00 F7
B0 00 00
B0 20 00
C0 00 40

The first line is simply text - anything you want but it MUST start with semi colon ;
The second line is addressing the brand, model, midi channel, Program or Combi and always ends with F7. the 00 before F7 sets it to Combi - for Program use 02 For the Krome, use the string in previous responses.
The third line says I'm using midi channel 00 (corresponds to the first 00 in line 2)
The Fourth line says I am using Bank A (00=A, 01=B, 02=C and so on but not sure about GM)
The Last line says I want Hex 40 (hex 40=64)

Hope this is understandable.

Hex Table

Post by Lenster »

The Hex numbering sequence is 16 based, and can be confusing unless you are a programmer.

Just google "hex table to decimal" to get a list of the hex to decimal translations.

001 = 01
