SYSEX to change to specific PROG EDIT screens -- possible?

Post by aanon »

I'd like to use my MIDI controller (Novation SL Zero) to make the editing of programs on my Triton faster.

I would really like to be able to use SYSEX to choose specific PROG EDIT screens on the Triton. So, for example I can press one button on my controller and the Triton goes to the PROG EDIT page for LFO1, or IFX, or AMP EG, etc.

Does anyone here know whether that is something that is possible with SYSEX?

Current state of research:

I have found SYSEX commands to change between the major modes of the Triton (COMBI, PROG, SEQ, SAMPLING and so on). These work fine.

I have looked at the SYSEX output by the Triton. It appears to send SYSEX out when changing between major modes but not when switching between different sections and tabs within the PROG EDIT mode.

Any input people can offer would be much appreciated.

Hello
You said "I have found SYSEX commands to change between the major modes of the Triton (COMBI, PROG, SEQ, SAMPLING and so on). These work fine."
Could you please provide those commands as I am unable to change those modes using the Midi implementation of Triton. I may be missing something.
Thanks
p.s. I am using the Plugin version of Triton

Hi philcoul,

Sorry, I didn't get any notification of your question and just happened to see it here.

According to Korg’s MIDI implementation sheet the command for Mode Change should be:

F0, 42, 3g, 50 – EXCL Header (g is your global midi channel number, 0-F)
41 – Function
0000 mmmm – Mode
F7 – End of EXCL

Modes are:
mmm =
0 : COMBI PLAY
1 : COMBI EDIT
2 : PROG PLAY
3 : PROG EDIT
4 : SEQUENCER
5 : SONGPLAY
6 : SAMPLING
7 : GLOBAL
8 : DISK

So, for example. to change to Program Play mode the command would be F0, 42, 30, 50, 41, 00, 02, F7

It's been a while since I did this so I hope this is all correct. Also, I have no idea to what extent the plugin version responds to SYSEX.

Good luck!
