SysEx editor ​

Open the SysEx editor from a SysEx macro’s Message row. Use it to define the raw System Exclusive payload and mark which bytes the knob modulates via MSB and LSB slots.

Open the editor ​

  1. Configure the macro mode to SysEx (see Setting up macros).
  2. In the macro grid, highlight Message.
  3. Press Select (short) Press Select.

SysEx macro — Message row

Browse bytes ​

The editor shows F0 and F7 anchors with up to 16 data bytes between them. Turn the encoder Turn the encoder to move focus across bytes and the + append slot.

SysEx editor — browse

Example in the screenshot: Universal Non-Real-Time SysEx header 7E 00 06, with MSB and LSB assigned on two payload bytes, hex byte 15, and + to append another byte. Counter 6/16 = six payload bytes used.

LabelMeaning
Hex pair (e.g. 7E)Data byte value
MSBThis byte receives the knob’s coarse (7-bit) modulation
LSBThis byte receives fine modulation for 14-bit control
+Append a new byte at the end

Edit or add a byte — hold Select ​

  1. Focus a byte or the + slot.
  2. Hold Select (long press) Hold Select — the value picker opens with up/down arrows.
  3. Hold Select (long press) Turn the encoder Turn the encoder to choose Empty (--, delete), MSB, LSB, or a hex value 00–7F.
  4. Release Select to apply and advance focus.

SysEx editor — hold Select on append slot

The screenshot shows the + append slot with the picker set to 00 — scroll up for Empty, MSB, or LSB when those slots are still free.

TIP

Assign MSB and LSB on different bytes when you need 14-bit resolution inside the SysEx payload. The macro Minimum / Maximum range maps knob travel onto those slots.

Reorder bytes ​

Hold Select (long press) Select (long press) on a byte enters drag mode. Turn the encoder Turn the encoder to swap the byte with its neighbor, then release to confirm.

Exit and commit ​

Press Back (short) Back commits the message when it changed and returns to the macro grid. The macro sends the SysEx message with modulated bytes when you turn the knob.
