Hi There
I was wondering if it was possible to sent stop start commands to remote sequencers via the MPC4000?
Like in this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQ9bL_Iy044 (I am not interested in keeping in sync - just sending stop start commands - eg 1 min 20 in the video)
I have tried to send the following commands via a SYSEX in the MPC4000 (Master) to the slave (external sequencer) but nothing happens
F0 7F 0D 06 01 F7 = MMC STOP
F0 7F 0D 06 02 F7 = MMC PLAY
maybe the 0D part is wrong ?
MMC Message Format
An MMC message is either an MMC command (Sub-ID#1=06) or an MMC response (Sub-ID#1=07). As a SysEx message it is formatted (all numbers hexadecimal):
F0 7F <Device-ID> <06|07> [<Sub-ID#2> [<parameters>]] F7
Device-ID: MMC device's ID#; value 00-7F (7F = all devices); AKA "channel number"
Sub-ID#1: 06 = command
Sub-ID#2:
01 Stop
02 Play
03 Deferred Play (play after no longer busy)
04 Fast Forward
05 Rewind
06 Record Strobe (AKA [[Punch in/out|Punch In]])
07 Record Exit (AKA [[Punch out (music)|Punch out]])
08 Record Pause
09 Pause (pause playback)
0A Eject (disengage media container from MMC device)
0B Chase
0D MMC Reset (to default/startup state)
40 Write (AKA Record Ready, AKA Arm Tracks)
parameters: <length1> 4F <length2> <track-bitmap-bytes>
44 Goto (AKA Locate)
parameters: <length>=06 01 <hours> <minutes> <seconds> <frames> <subframes>
47 Shuttle
parameters: <length>=03 <sh> <sm> <sl> (MIDI Standard Speed codes)
Has anyone got this to work?
any help would be appreciated!
