Then I import this file into cubase project containing the chords. I want to have an software with ( graphical user) interface that I enter repeatedly four pieces of data: 1)measure, 2)beat number, 3)chord root, 4)chord type and at the end the SysEx midi track is created and stored on the disk. But this software edits the existing one. I see Midi Editor MidiSoft - midi and style editors, dedicated to work with Yamaha, Korg, Ketron, Roland instruments. Now, I need to find a way to create (or edit) and save a midi track with ONLY SysEx data entered in it, measure by measure and then import it in cubase. In fact, I when I export it, it looks like this in the text editor ( It contains only the Style parts say, Intro 1, A, Break, Ending): I can see the SysEx data for style variations in cubase. PSR is detecting the chords sent from cubase and playing the chord progression coming from a MIDI chord tracker ( of course after I did Chord to MIDI). I could send the chord progressions from my DAW to PSR. The only one way is to send relevant SysEx data from any MIDI editor in Cubase. I was wondering what channel(s) contains progressions.Ĭhord event in Cubase doesn’t send the SysEx data Yamaha expects. I guess I need to enter Sysex data manually in list editor or to use my PSR keyboard and midi input transformer. I plays back the styles parts ( change the variations from Intros and A-D), how ever, the chord are not played back. I set the MIDI setting on PSR so that I receives All midi parts. I think there is a way to get around this. The chord track only contain Chord Symbols and NOT the actual chords. I have attached the screen shots of the list editor for both track. Both contain (meta) midi data and sysEx data. The midi file is basically two midi tracks 1) Chord Data and 2( the other SysEx Data.

I just imported the midi file generated by Chord Tracker into cubase and tried to play it. Source: link = > Chord Tracker revealed | Sand, software and sound All playback is controlled by metadata and System Exclusive messages. The preamble is followed by a slew of Yamaha System Exclusive messages for the chord changes:į0 43 7E 02 34 00 34 7F F7 Chord control (F maj/F)į0 43 7E 00 08 7F F7 Section control (MAIN A ON)į0 43 7E 02 23 00 23 7F F7 Chord control (Eb maj/Eb)Ĭhord Tracker does not generate the Yamaha proprietary CdS1 chunk in the MIDI file. Here is how chord track sends midi style messages to PSR:Ĭhord Tracker generates three MIDI metadata records for time signature, key signature and tempo, followed by three System Exclusive messages:

I greatly appreciate it if you could help me to get started.
