Four people in this very thread have asked for it. I’m not the only person asking for it (“unique to your situation”)
Please stop making false statements to that effect.
You’re falsely characterising me as the only person asking for this.
Other platforms.
I don’t want more cables, more devices, more OS’s, more updates.
I wanted one device that could handle midi with the advantage of filtering/conversion.
Midihub does this, and as stated by yourself, is perfectly capable of converting sysex.
I have accepted that in all likelihood I won’t be getting this functionality in Midihub.
Again.
I asked.
You answered.
You keep making incorrect summaries. I never said it is only you that wants this feature. SysEx, as a nonstandard interface between computers and instruments, by default means that it requires customization for the particular devices that one owns, according to their defined protocols, which are wildly different between different devices and manufacturers. Other users who are interested in this are likely interested because of totally different instruments and reasons. That’s what I meant by saying unique to your situation.
And again, you can solve this by running a script on your computer to which Midihub is connected, no need for any extra hardware.
Thanks for the reply.
I purchased the Midihub because it is a tightly integrated solution, the device, and the application that manages it.
I want to keep my solution as simple as possible, compact and fuss-free (script free?).
So, I don’t want to add more devices, scripts, applications, cables etc etc.
So the simple workflow of Daw>midihub>device is perfect.
As above sysex functionality was requested and re-requested by several people starting 4 years ago, that, alongside your statements that
but rather this is not a top priority
lead me to believe I’m not likely to see it soon. I don’t think that’s an unreasonable assumption to make.
However, I’m still trying to make music with a number of hardware devices, one of which only shows half it’s capabilities, because a) Waldorf abandoned it, and b) that functionality is hidden behind sysex.
USB midi is woeful, latency can be horrendous and unstable, so the midihub was perfect.
It kept it simple and neat as a solution.
Most DAWs are horrendous at sysex, hence why the midihub and its app were so appealing.
However, if that fork of development is not going to happen anytime soon, I’ll have to look for another, simple, elegant solution.
I’ll return on a regular basis to see if sysex appears.
Thanks for your help and advice.
