MIDI SysEx Editor

While SysEx events are displayed in the List Editor/Project Browser (Cubase Pro only), it is not their entire content that is displayed. Only the beginning of the message is displayed in the Comment column for the event. The event is not editable. You can only move the event, the same way you would move it in the List Editor.
  • To open the MIDI SysEx Editor for a SysEx event, click in the Comments column for the event in the List Editor/Project Browser.



The display shows the entire message on one or several lines. SysEx messages always begin with F0 and end with F7 and a number of arbitrary bytes in between. If the message contains more bytes, so that they do not entirely fit on one line, it continues on the next line. The Address indication to the left helps you find out on which position in the message a certain value is located.

You can edit all values except for the first (F0) and the last ones (F7).

In the MIDI SysEx Editor, the bytes are displayed as follows:

  • In the main display, values are shown in hexadecimal format.

  • To the right of the main display, values are shown in ASCII format.

  • At the bottom of the dialog, the selected value is shown in ASCII, binary, and decimal formats.
