Re: questions to EDP Loop IV Sysex specialists

gee, you made me look at that dusty code again...

it puts out a number of blocks of 64 samples
and according to the rest of MIDI, they are 7 bit Hex values

no, and I am not set up to test it...
as it looks, any preset number bigger than 16 is set to 0 which is 
the actual, so you should be ok with 7F.
maybe you should not set from=0 since it does not exist as you note below?
maybe device ID should not be 7F? Seems we had some trouble with some 
sampler so I usually tested with 0...
else it looks ok what you do, no idea...
so with other combinations of from and length it works?

nothing probably, dont remember why we did not want to numerate from 0

I used it on the mac with V2.1 and it was fine... Claude?
