I'm working on MIDI stuff now (after my couple of weeks digression on the linkable drum kit format). Promise I will have some MMC stuff for you in the next build. :)
Having said that, can you give me any more details on your machine, Carl? The best I've been able to find is: <http://www.rolandus.com/products/ details.asp?CatID=12&SubCatID=48&ProdID=VS-1680&PageMode=19> Yet none of these documents talks about MMC (or MIDI at all) so far as I can tell. I'd like to get some more technical meat if I could, e.g., on what commands it listens for and sends, etc.
Well, my deck's user manual contains instructions for setting up a software sequencer (like Cakewalk or Logic) as slave to my deck, or vice versa, though that probably won't be much help since all the actual MIDI stuff happens somewhere that the user doesn't see. I also have the complete MIDI spec for my deck (which I slurped off the web from somewhere back when I was first looking at this stuff). I don't know how useful these things are, but MMC is supposed to be pretty standardized (-- anyway, I've put the PDF manual and spec on my web site: http://www.carlaz.com/music/VS1680_UserGuide.pdf http://www.carlaz.com/music/VS1680_MidiSpec.pdf I just randomly found this page which discusses MMC and SysX commands with Cakewalk, though not in any great depth: http://www.cakewalk.com/Support/Docs/MMCandSYSX.asp Cheers, Carl -- Carl Edlund Anderson http://www.carlaz.com/
