Hello everyone!
new here...
I'm tring to send system exclusive message to my Roland (edirol) SD-80
I'm using ubuntu studio -> qjackctl set puredata midi out to the sd-80 input
pgmout works!

in the manual the message is in HEX: "F0 43 10 4C 00 00 7E 00 F7" (without(""))
this message supposed to set the sound generator mode to XGlite and the module should show that the mode is set...
I wrote this HEX code in a message box (ctrl + 2) then connected the message box to midiout object
entered play mode (ctrl + E) clicked the message box but nothing happened...

Thanks!

@Chip_Luxury-E.W.A You need to convert the hex to decimal and send it into [midiout]......

You are lucky, because [midiout] is Linux only.

@whale-av Thank you it works!
This is my first SysEx I sent throw code.

It ain’t luck, its a choice, Red pill (;

@Chip_Luxury---E.W.A I must have taken some other pill....... I remember it was called "Strawberry Fields" back in the 1960/70's.
In case you need a Hex to Decimal converter that works on the fly....... hex2dec.zip
Because the "cxc" library version never worked......... but this requires the "zexy" library.
Then I realised that computers don't use the alphabet.
The one on the right allows upper and lower case 8-bit HEX to decimal conversion directly from the keyboard in Vanilla.
Check that though as your keyboard output could be different.....

@whale-av
nice! by the way, couldn't you just leave out the [list prepend symbol] and [list trim]?

works for me without these...

@toxonic Yes.....! I should have removed them after adding [makefilename].....
