great Korg padKontrol Resource for sysex

If you want to control your padKontrol in realtime, then this guy has written a great SysEx compilation - working great for me.

I have tried everything to get my padKontrol to enter Native Mode, and I'm somewhat convinced it's faulty. I just got a microKontrol recently, and from THIS I came up with this Native Mode block for the microKontrol:

Code: Select all

I don't understand all the parts, but I can change the LED states/colors, and use ASCII text codes for the LCDs. The Octave buttons still work in standard mode (color/reset octave both buttons). I've just started, but this is enough raw MIDI for BMTP to take over.

Could you post a similar code I can use in BMTP to put the padKontrol in Native Mode?

I can try working on this, but no guarantees.... I think you might be right that the pK is faulty.
Recently, I've had to start switching EVERYTHING except the genuine pitch bend (with LSB) over to my QuNeo because one day, out of the blue, my pK stopped accepting Native messages.... I'm baffled, and think there is something wrong with the units firmware and there's no firmware update that I can find. Something I was doing must have caused the firmware to reprogram itself????

It sucks - and worse yet, I can't even do a factory restart anymore to reinitialize it!

Sorry bud, but something's wrong with the pK, I think

Best of luck... lemme know if you figure anything out.
