Can I make a question here?

Hi,

I read all you nice documentation about the sysex on Arturia (I own Keylab Essentials from Arturia) but I have a question about creating the sysex data message. Your documentation is very nice but it lacks examples so I am not sure if my command is correct.

As per the documentation you kindly provided, if I want to send an OCT+ press I would need to use this data:

[0xF0,0x7E,0x00,0x06,0x02,0x00206B,0x00206B7F420200001101,0xF7]

But it does not work, I mean, when I execute this sysex the OCT+ button in the Arturia midi controller does not light up. I tried messing around with some numbers in the code above but I could never get it to work. Could you please tell me if I am doing something wrong? I just want to simulate the OCT+ button being press, so I want Arturia midi controller to light up that button.

Thank a lot dear friend.

Hi @batata004
Thanks for your message and sorry for the delay.

Your documentation is very nice but it lacks examples

You're right, it took me a while to figure out the structure of the message you are using, examples may help !

when I execute this sysex the OCT+ button in the Arturia midi controller does not light up

Unfortunately, I did not find any way to either simulate this key press or ask the device for the current octave status.

Maybe there are some undocumented messages that would allow us to do that, but ... well we do not know.

After bothering a lot Arturia they finally provided me the sysex messages! I am attaching it to you.
