I know it; it was the first keyboard I bought before my D-50, MT-32, Super-JX, etc. I was quite pleased by the reasonable quality of the sounds coming from this litle beast. It sounded perticulary good on a nice big sound-system and some delay/reverb. The only 'but' was that it didn't have MIDI... I also have an Apple 2e for wich I had built a couple of parallel ports that appeared to be perfectly suitable for driving the Casio. As I also had an MIDI- interface on the Apple, I wrote a little program that could receive event-data from my sequencer (an Amiga by the way) on any MIDI-channel and convert that into the proper binary format to put on the parallel port; et voila: there we have a (pretty expensive) MIDI-input for the Casio. Maybe an idea for you and your Tandy ... ? > -bye for now > -T. Shawn... Bye. Robert Belleman robbel%nkivxh.surfnet@hasara5.bitnet robbel%nkivxh.surfnet@sara.nl robbel@vaxh.nki.nl "I'm finished.

DeRose" Subject: Another newcomer Hello. As keyboards etc. have now reached affordability (to me), I'm planning to act on my long-standing but latent interest in MIDI. I've been thinking of getting one of the new Yamaha MIDI keyboards, and hooking it to my Mac II. Unfortunately, I haven't seen any software that's both nice and affordable. So my question is, is anyone out there doing anything in the shareware or public domain arena, or willing to provide some source to work from? Mainly what I'm looking for is something to read the MIDI-in and save it to disk in some format I can then edit. A staff editor would sure be nice, but I appreciate the difficulty of writing one. I can code in any likely language, so would be willing to tweak things or work with someone else. Also, in relation to this is a broader question: Are there any *standards* for encoding music in electronic form? If so I'd much rather write code that conformed than reinvent the wheel. I wouldn't count MIDI itself as an *encoding* standard, since (if I understand it right) it has no internal time encoding, but just sends events which have to be clocked by some device if their time or duration is to be recorded. Thanks for any help! Dr. Steve DeRose ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Aug 89 14:11:31 EDT From: "Kevin R. Weiner" Subject: Re: Another newcomer A MIDI file format has been adopted. The format contains general timing information, and a breakdown of the MIDI stream by track and event time. MIDI channel messages and their timing are fully represented, but there is only minimal support to store other notational information. There is a copy available from the list: GET FILEFMT MIDISPEC Kevin Weiner Lehigh University Computing Center (215) 758-3991 ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 24 Aug 89 13:00:40 EST From: DJ WOOD Subject: Finale Those of you that have finale please help.

I can't remember the details of the question, but it was something about the file format. The answer is that the banks are compressed, so run them through uncompress on a Unix host to get the original 34688 byte data. Then, the D-50 loading is a bit more complicated, with checksums and the like.

Your dump of AnalogFX agrees with mine upto byte 374 (octal) or so. How big is your patch file? It should be 34688 bytes long. So: (i) here's a compressed uuencoding of AnalogFX, direct to the mailing list. Please try with this one, and let me know if it decodes to the right size on the UNIX host, in which case the fault is in your modem transfer program, perhaps. I've had Kermit programs corrupt files, so it isn't unknown. (ii) Has anybody else tried? I pulled AnalogFX from the archive, and it was still 34688 bytes long, so I'm inclined to think the archives are OK. ---CUT--- begin 644 AnalogFX.Z M'YV0#%H\&``@0`````X(2!BD`((-![[(`""@@80(,UKL`$"F!$4`#,CAH$2$$K4*%+'3)U"E4JYZF7,6;=V_5I3[-BR,LZF7=MV)EP`TEY-@GDU'GWTN+!3!$4/$H(,62X2`T$($\O##<"ZXT`0(#9)Q!80(2=A7 M`P](8)(!`5`P00TSF;#!`BJ04=,%$ZC%5X,`#(!C73`(`81QZ1T`"![`E00(#(`!DC0@L,!8-,)SGP4)/S+37 M;W(UP"F@/RRA:9489"M`E@O=JL"W5*A0T*_!#EOLL>P6"*:S9*P@+;7XRH3M MK!OKY)X4WD($Q@GCEGLN&>FNF:R[S:>8SM>GY50$X<-"B""1`P4QTM84; M`!?\WC!".LS4A,@+*$!![A$.P(/=IH8:8-]_#V!ZX0BE7L'J)K4.N>246XZY MYIS;?ESU@%U/N@#;HP[D]XR'[]GXL)L_>_KS'9?[[CWJW>_BXK#A%0\`QP-` M\A"R/``T[WD2JY'T[!8`%&S`!"DP$=F`,P*TB6IM)"#!"VKP'10<1`1D*$_= M[(89$K`G`#7;`!D.8"T8!(`N!R!#4A"",#)8C@I.(%.;EO(%!B@@`AW`0@RT MX`4KB*!:';A67TA0H>P<1(8(:-,!DH)#)AW."731`.,6@)`ABJ2("GB""\B@ M`BR`P`+#*6,4CR.`?QT``13@RDP6LH&9V&!X%D!($G:P,2,AQ#T%@$!FT-0# M%@P`/[!R87MB.,,:WC`A.IQ)#W\81`@1T8A(5"(3G0A%*?*%B@NP(@"PJ$4N M8M*0#@`C`,3HP#*"Y(Q&5",;W0C'VLT1,W7T7?AHPD<_`E*0A`R`(9'E*T76 M)0:-?*3=!,""#G[@4\L9V$P:F!T,,,`&'6(`"A`B`B_0P%4L/`X)8D`S@\B0 MA@GY00"T2`1(`F"39`"B$/MT@R(V@`Q.P`(,R"`"$#P17[:!D0@+0I@9!"D&8+F29[G&` M!-)"1FCZ@*>;VN`"-H`"#RB-)MS4#G>\(\Z#3``*=!-;.FF"@1JT$P`H$$-[ M:-4"#Y#Q`&(()`$N`((02(4)7!#"0A;B@`()!0!'#:U*ZVM::E26P!:QT']&N`?#+`$RT@ M@ABP]`((B2E"K+!`X"7I3@*`00_N*C)8-9:VD@T`92V;$-UNMK.?#>UH#V?: MX1B7M:Z]RG)G,ML!;`RRZ5UO;C7+V_@"E[3#+:YJ\9OP7(:)RKN:(F9`G M:H`'+"5>=F?"W9H@0%+@%2]Y[68`(:$@!!_X#7+4ULW!?F=Z`<@`$V00`!EL M:;%\@5.MY$0`_"0`(LL$P`PT<`,;!)FT9,!!%7*:!"08H08%,@$':J>`X/7E M2CO&T$MHL"\@TV3(13XR?7&0A9Q"P0E*@#(/7(`!*EN9+_:CB'4F0`'.V<:Z M94&`!YR"V-Z\I48.2,NE9%`#'%PL/3JNE99[W.4;M@WJ,&AT5/!"V:0(D(Z&W-')5APOK@@$*`" MC6V,XQQ7R#T\ID$!3!WD$T!:S)->,@":/+8 M)9UD=;,[6CR0LIN/$[`'.),O=_[UGF'J%F+/)]`3([2A%?NF>7-LRP8@-TWT MK6H:I9O)3@:XP.%MZYKHF-X[Z7'&\8T0CJ.[WR!O=\#?_9)X]Z7@!P>+6/!L MEH4+V:$)@/B@"[UL_UD0@R8:@`A24-YMLEBP;F,`C+.][1MWFR9XZU1.:G@` M+<[``SD]-4)>>RZ:M*FT,B@B9%GP@Q.000Q8)4`'2H[U&FC=G0GQ.M@Q21.R M!_GLT%(["MCN=KC;4:YTK]T!*#"<`@Q@`;1!R`+(4#O,`GAZ&(13"B$8YX9"%+@H`2:M`-?T`-D@'EMTB8+0`8T0!(`$`9#<$]!

I'll try getting the bank from the archive again. It's all quite strange. I had pulled 9 banks from the archive and *none* of them are 34688 bytes long. AnalogFX came out to 33016 bytes, BassPnoOrg was 33033 bytes and so one. That's more than 100 bytes missing! It's not a problem between my Unix machine and my PC because the files were corrupted when I received them on my Unix machine. And the corruption doesn't look like a transmission problem because the corruption is quite regular - in fact I can safely say that the bytes lost are always trailing zeroes at the end of a 64-byte section of a patch. It almost looks like something is doing some compression of zeroes somewhere. Since the bank is compressed and then uuencoded, the problem is probably not during uuencoding/uudecoding but *might* be during the compressing/de-compressing. On which machine are you running compress and which compress are you using? I have a Vax running 4.3 and a Sun running SunOS4.0.1 and they both produce the same file on decompression. Anyway, I'll try getting the bank from the archive again and doing it all over again. I'll let you know how it turns out. Thanks for taking the time to help me work out these problems. Eric Lau ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 25 Aug 89 09:52:00 -0700 From: lau@EAN.UBC.CA Subject: D50 patches in archive Stranger and stranger. I actually received your message (the one that included the AnalogFX bank) THREE times. I know why I received two of them - one was from EMUSIC-L and one was from you directly. The third was from EMUSIC-L to BSMTP ???? What it was doing in my mailbox I don't know. Anyway, the one I originally uudecoded and de-compressed was the one from you directly to me. It was fine. Well I just uudecoded and de-compressed the other two messages and guess what.... they're all different. In fact all three messages are actually different. There looks to be something majorly wrong going on here between the AUVM archive machine and mine. Perhaps whoever is in charge of the archive would like to step in and make some comments if he has any ideas? Eric Lau ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 26 Aug 89 10:57:02 EDT From: lau@EAN.UBC.CA Subject: D50 patches in archive OK I think I've figured it out. Here's the scoop. I did a 'diff' on the multiple versions of the banks that you sent me, and the *only* difference is that all the '^'s have been translated to ';'s in the uuencoded messages. Pretty bizarre, huh? Well it looks like the problem occurs at a gateway somewhere between my machine and the AUVM archive. I assume AUVM is a IBM host since it's on Bitnet and uses EBCDIC. Well I use a VAX and a Sun, both ASCII machines. Somewhere between my machine and AUVM, somebody has to translate between EBCDIC and ASCII and it looks like that translation is messing up. Your message directly to me had '^'s in the message but by the time it goes through AUVM and gets to me, those '^'s get translated to ';'. (Hmm, I wonder what this message will look like when I get it back from EMUSIC-L. Will this make any sense? OK, '^' is a caret and ';' is a semi-colon. What does everybody else see?) Anyway, I've talked to the E-mail people around here and they're going to look into where the EBCDIC to ASCII translation is getting done and check if it's working properly. In the meantime, I won't be able to retrieve the banks from the archive. Do you think it's possible, Nick, for you to mail me the banks directly(since we've verified that mail between you and I is being sent properly)? Sorry to have bothered everybody else on the list with all this but I hope it will help anybody else who isn't on Bitnet who also gets EMUSIC-L and has tried to access the archive. Anyway it's been a weird but educational way to spend a Friday morning.

The uuencoding is done on a Pyramid, since Sun uuencode puts in space characters, whereas Pyramid uuencode puts in "`" characters. Either is correct, but the latter is better because some mailers might remove trailing spaces. I can't remember which I used for the archives, but this might provide some clue. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Aug 89 09:53:22 BST From: Nick Rothwell Subject: D50 patches in archive <1374:lau@ean.ubc.ca >Well it looks like the >problem occurs at a gateway somewhere between my machine and the AUVM >archive.

You can select the voices directly from the front panel or over MIDI, but the RAM voices can't be edited without software. You could write your own (I'm currently doing this for my '6R), if you're lucky enough to get the System Exclusive spec. If you are, then I'd like to hear from you! Oberheim are dreadfully secretive about this stuff. >Is it multitimbral? (I know the Matrix 6 could play splits >... can this do the same?). No, and No. Single timbre, single mono output. >Is this a good module for $500 Cdn >(currently about $420 US), or should I be looking at some Roland gear >for analog? I remember being impressed with the J8XP awhile ago - is >that the Super-JX rack mount people have been talking about? The Super-JX is essentially two JX8Ps in a single box, although rumour has it that it doesn't sound quite as good. As far as I'm concerned, it sounds beautiful. It doesn't have as flexible as voice architecture as the Oberheims, but the MKS-70 rackmount has 12 voices which can be grouped bitimbrally as 6 + 6, plus chorusing. I also find the Oberheim sound to be a little stodgy for some purposes...
