Hi guys, I don't remember seeing too many topics covering this particular subject but maybe someone has messed with this stuff already and has more information to share.

Anyway, while the SP-555 is not that great as a controller it might have a bit more under the hood than what the manual says. After reading korakios' topic on the 606 forum I installed a MIDI translator and tried to see what came up.

Using the V-Link function the D-Beam, the 3 control knobs and the 16 pads send MIDI messages, so that's 20 x 2: Channel A and B send different stuff, channel C didn't seem to do much apparently... wait, I think the D-Beam did, so that's 20 x 2... + 1... + 3 (the control knobs already send CC data when the V-Link is off).

So, maybe it's not all that great, but it might be a good workaround for having more controllers to use and stuff.

Tried with a softsynth, Clip mode sends program change or something like that (with the pads).

Digging up an old topic, messed with Bome's Midi Translator Classic and this is what came up:

STD Mode: F0 41 7F 00 51 12 10 00 pp 09 qq F7 (On) - F0 41 7F 00 51 12 10 00 pp qq rr F7 (Off)

[CLIP A]

CTRL1: B3 08 pp (CC #4: Balance, pp)
CTRL2: B3 47 pp (CC #4: Timbre, pp)
CTRL3: B3 0B pp (CC #4: Expression, pp)

[CLIP B]

CTRL1: B9 08 pp (CC #10: Balance, pp)
CTRL2: B9 47 pp (CC #10: Timbre, pp)
CTRL3: B9 0B pp (CC #10: Expression, pp)

D-BEAM: B9 01 pp (CC #10 Modulation, pp)

[CLIP C]

Pads: 98 23 7F (Note On) to 98 32 7F (Note On) (Note On #9: B1 to D3)

[PALETTE A]

PADS: B3 00 00 to B3 00 0F (CC #4 Bank Select MSB 0 to 15)
*Alternates with B3 00 pp everytime a different PAD is pressed

[PALETTE B]

PADS: B9 00 00 to B9 00 0F (CC #10 Bank Select MSB 0 to 15)

[PALETTE C]

PADS: 99 23 7F (Note On) to 99 32 7F (Note On) (Note On #10: B1 to D3)

*While I've done it through USB-MIDI it'll work the same through MIDI Out.
