MIDI Monitor
This used to be mostly a diagnos-
tic tool - it shows all the Sys-Ex
information coming in. But now
we’ve got it reved up to send
almost any Sys-Ex message the
EPS/ASR will receive!
Message Screen
Push a few buttons on the EPS/
ASR while this screen is up -
you see all the information come in. You’ll notice the input setup right next to
it - this will be fully functional next version.
Instrument and Layer Option buttons
Select the instrument or layer.
Wave Combo Box
Ensoniq MIDI-Disk Tools will automatically load the wavesamples that exist in
that particular layer/instrument, If the Instrument has not been read from the
EPS/ASR as yet, the Combo Box will reset to include all wavesamples.
Request Type Frame
There are four different types of transmissions:
Request: You may request from the EPS/ASR a parameter; i.e., nd out
what it’s value is.
Update: Change a parameters value.
ACK: Send an Acknowledgment. This is useful if you are sending a block
command. You won’t use this often, if at all.
Manual: This disables all appropriate buttons/boxes and enables you to
edit directly the output string displayed below.
You probably will need to refer to the External Command Specication by
Ensoniq. Call Ensoniq at 1-610-647-3930 for a copy.
Category of Message Frame
This selects every parameter in the EPS/ASR to edit. Notice the Combo box
resets with each button push.
Manual EDIT Box
This either displays the output sys-ex string to be outputted, or allows you to
internally edit the values, depending on your selection in All values are in Type
