Thank you so much for the System Exclusive data for the AKX10. I´ll take a look specially at the Rotary effect to I can go from the slow to fast and vice-versa. Greetins from Brazil.
Thank you so much for this amazing demonstration of hidden possibilities in my AKX 10 ! I hope you will soon find out more and publish it here. Greetings and all the best ;-))
Very interesting. I am using for my Genos the Style Magic Yamaha software, wich use a lot of System Exclusiv. Comparing to your video makes me understand a lot of things and relate data from Genos to AKX10 too. Thank you for your work. 🥰
Hi, very interesting and in depth study. I´d like to make you a question: today I received my THOMAN AK-X1100 and after connecting it to a weighted midi controller I discovered that it sounds great, however I cannot find a way to control rythm and chord from the external keyboard, so I wonder: is this possible? Thanks in advance
Hi JC, yes, it is possible to control the rhythm and the chord via an external midi controller. You have to configure the midi channels Chord and Right in the GLOBAL SETTINGS -> MIDI I/O. Greetings
Hi @@microwavesounds , that´s fantastic! I will take your advice and will try it. After I´ll give you my impressions. Thanks a lot for your fast response. Regards
Simply: awsome! Is just the right keyboard I was searching for without spending a fortune 😀. I needed a some kind of arranger to play, basically drum & bass in sync, while performing at piano. I use an 88 weighted keyboard (PX5S) which it feels great controlling the AK-X1100. Wow what a discovering my God! Thank you very much, again.
Hi @raidmarji, yes, there are also microtuning (scale tuning) sysex commands: F0 41 00 42 12 40 1p* 40 v1 v2 … v12 xx F7 You can see the full "Scale Tuning" commands at page 61: www.mecldata.com/download/manual/AKX10_DL.pdf
@raidmarji Basically, no checksum is necessary. You could completely omit the last bytes (00 - here shown as ØØ) before F7 F0 41 00 42 12 40 11 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 00 ØØ F7 In this example, the last 00 before the F7 means -64 cents of note b. This also works! F0 41 00 42 12 40 11 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 00 F7
Hello, I have created the list of AKX10 MIDI SysEx commands for this purpose. www.dropbox.com/s/35jpdzqrmc59btz/SYS_EX_List.pdf?dl=0 The AKX10 receives the Midi/SysEx commands I created in addition to the DATA LIST already provided by MEDELI. There are also MIDI/SysEx commands for the Global Effects. But unfortunately I haven't figured these out completely yet. As soon as I have them completely figured out, I will update the list and show them in a follow up video.
Hey thank you very much for this video I also got some sounds in .snc and .mem extension from a friend. Do you know how i can put them into the keyboard?
The snd files can directly used from USB thumb drive. It is accessible via USER --> USB and the folder which contains the snd files Alternativly you can then copy the files to the AKX10 via the Button Menu ->"Save User". Also the mem files can directly used from USB thumb drive. It is accessible via BANK --> USB and the folder which contains the mem files But be aware: The snd refers only to sounds, which are included in your AKX10 Keyboard. It practically only contains the parameters auf Attack, Vibrato, ... If the refered sound is not installed (via Expansion) the snd doesn't work. Also the mem files refers to styles and sounds included in the your AKX10 Keyboard. If the styles and sounds are not installed, they don't work as desired
@@davidstojak220 Currently there is no way to install a restricted MPK file on an unauthorised AKX10. But that is a good thing, because there are many expansion creators - and copy protection ensures that they are not re-released without permission ;-)

I am curious if you know how to send a midi message or a sysex to change the variation form a to c for example using a midi controller

Nice tutorial. Any idea about the microtuning SysEx?
Hi @raidmarji,
yes, there are also microtuning (scale tuning) sysex commands:

@@microwavesounds what about the checksum?? everything excluding F0 and F7? or as roland starting from specific byte?
@raidmarji
Here is a complete example for an arabic scale sysex for the Parts (MidiChannels) 1-3:
PART 1:
F0 41 00 42 12 40 11 40 40 40 0E 40 40 40 40 40 40 0E 40 40 00 F7
PART 2:
F0 41 00 42 12 40 12 40 40 40 0E 40 40 40 40 40 40 0E 40 40 00 F7
PART 3:
F0 41 00 42 12 40 13 40 40 40 0E 40 40 40 40 40 40 0E 40 40 00 F7
Always send the commands with F0 and F7
@@microwavesoundsmany thanks for your reply. I really appreciate it. But what about the checksum? The last hex just before F7? How to calculate it?
@raidmarji
Basically, no checksum is necessary.
You could completely omit the last bytes (00 - here shown as ØØ) before F7
F0 41 00 42 12 40 11 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 00 ØØ F7
In this example, the last 00 before the F7 means -64 cents of note b. This also works!
F0 41 00 42 12 40 11 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 40 00 F7
