hi msepis … i have figured them out by now here is a complete list of all the paramters for the microwave. just in case you want to give it a go. your mw xt panel is really nice!
[quote:2pzx999s]Sys-Ex dumps and requests will always be in the following format:
F0h IDW DEV IDM
data
CHKSUM F7hwhere
F0h : Status for System Exclusive
IDW : Waldorf MIDI ID = 3Eh
IDE : Equipment ID = 00h for MicroWave
DEV : Device number, 00h to 7Eh, 7Fh = global
IDM : Message ID
data : whatever data bytes, 00h to 7Fh
CHKSUM : Sum of all data bytes truncated to 7 bits. The addition is done
in 8 bit format, the result is masked to 7 bits (00h to 7Fh).
IMPORTANT: The MIDI status bytes as well as the ID’s are not
used for computing the checksum.
If there are no data bytes in the message (simple
request), the checksum will always be 00h.
F7h : End of System Exclusive transmissionByte # Value

[/quote:3vpd9kkx]thanks for the compliment, lilakomonoke… unfortunately I do not own a microwave 1, so I can’t really help you on this one, but it sounds like you have everything you need – just need to spend some time dropping in the types of modulators (knobs, sliders, buttons, etc) and assign away! Feel free to download and use the XT CTRLR I created for reference along with the XT manual (easily found on google).. many of those modulators are cc but all the wave envelope and mod matrix stuff is sysex – once you get going it’s pretty straightforward. and highly addictive.
I would recommend against doing all the labeling etc in your bg image as I did there.. CTRLR has progressed quite a bit since I started that panel, and keeping it all in ctrlr will make it a hellofalot easier to move stuff around when you inevitably will need to in order to fit stuff in.
Heck you might even want to try by simply starting with the panel i created and just change the sysex formulas..

October 29, 2011 at 9:32 am #1378this is coming along very nicely. i have most of the parameters set up so i can work with it. this beast has some incredible sound hidden inside. with the microwave its really is all about organizing the parameters in such a way that you can see all the important settings and how they relate to the sound. cntrl. really turns this synth into a waldorf wave, which is the BFG of all wavetable synths! her is an example of real time tweaking:
October 31, 2011 at 12:03 pm #1379Nice sounds on there lilakmonoke! Looking forward to seeing your finished product for the Microwave!
January 9, 2013 at 9:35 am #5445Hi, I’m wondering if there is any movement going forward on this panel?
January 9, 2013 at 9:18 pm #5458Sounds like lilakmonoke was making progress, but I’ve never seen what he came up with.
Related note, I’ve made Major progress on the microwave XT panel (monstrumWave) (you can now roundtrip wavetables and waveforms from the synth to the panel, edit on the panel, then store back to presets on the synth).. When I wrap this up for the microwave II/XT panel I’m planning on migrating the whole shebang to a microwave I panel. I have not lifted a finger on (my) development of any microwave I panel but will shortly after I wrap up w/ the II/XT panel as Ive received countless requests on this through email.
I’ll be flying blind a bit as I do not own a microwave I but it shouldn’t be rocket science. (anymore than building the XT panel was)

January 10, 2013 at 9:15 am #5472I have a Microwave 1 version 1.25 and version 2.0. I can help you with that if you like.
http://shamkara.free.fr/man/mw_Para.htm
This is a good link for reference to the sysex for real time control.
I started my own MW1 panel for real time control yesterday, basically adding controllers to a tab sheet which is organised in the same way as on the front panel of the hardware device.
So a tab for OSC, Waves, Volume, Filter, Envelopes, LFO’s, Pan/Glide. On these I added stock buttons and faders and referred to the sysex which is linked above. Doing the OSC section at the moment.
Eventually I’d like the panel to be able to get and put the banks from and to the device. I also have a Kenton control freak with patches made for real time control over sysex.
I’m gonna take a look at your panel right now 🙂
December 17, 2013 at 8:55 pm #16713hi all .. just checked whats going on with the microwave patch editor. mine was working great but i lost it in a hard disk crash and have meanwhile moved to linux. now i see there is a ctrlr version for linux and it is working!
so now i think i will redo my editor. also mr. monstrum has now a commercial version for sale which looks really nice and can also edit wavetables. i have no idea how to do that. is there some way to figure it out?
