.SH NAME
|
|
aseqsend \- send arbitrary messages to selected ALSA MIDI seqencer port
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
\fBaseqsend\fP \-p client:port -s file-name
|
|
.br
|
|
\fBaseqsend\fP \-p client:port "hex encoded byte-string"
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
\fBaseqsend\fP is a command-line utility which allows one to send
|
|
SysEx (system exclusive) data to ALSA MIDI sequencer port.
|
|
It can also send any other MIDI commands.
|
|
Messages to be sent can be given in the last argument as hex encoded
|
|
byte string or can be read from raw binary file.
|
|
When sending several SysEx messages at once there is a delay of 1ms
|
|
after each message as default and can be set to different value with
|
|
option \-i.
|
|
|
|
A client can be specified by its number, its name, or a prefix of its
|
|
name. A port is specified by its number; for port 0 of a client, the
|
|
":0" part of the port specification can be omitted.
|
|
|
|
\fBaseqsend\fP can send UMP packets as MIDI 2.0 device by specifying
|
|
via \-u option as well, while the default operation is the legacy MIDI
|
|
1.0 byte stream.
|

|
|
.TP
|
|
\fI\-p, -\-port=client:port\fP
|
|
Target port by number or name
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fI\-s, \-\-file=filename\fP
|
|
Send raw binary data from given file name
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fI\-i, \-\-interval=msec\fP
|
|
Interval between SysEx messages in milliseconds
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fI\-u, \-\-ump=version\fP
|
|
Specify the MIDI version. 0 for the legacy MIDI 1.0 (default),
|
|
1 for UMP MIDI 1.0 protocol and 2 for UMP MIDI 2.0 protocol.
|
|
|
|
When UMP MIDI 1.0 or MIDI 2.0 protocol is specified, \fBaseqsend\fP
|
|
reads the input as raw UMP packets, 4 each byte in big endian.
