0x20 this has been mentioned as a test / experimental / undocumented register for sound functions, no idea how it works.





0x27 contains the set, reset, load flags for timers A and B, which apparently function alongside the YM2612 sound functions, but I'm not sure how these can be used. I believe that this will let you unlock a formant synthesis mode that could in theory be used for speech or complex wave synthesis.





0x2A is the value set for the DAC output for channel 6.
Set the DAC to ON, but don't play samples or waveforms. Instead, send a DC value directly to 0x2A. This will have different effects depending on the hardware you are using, and seems to be most pronounced with model 2 units.

0x2C seems to put the DAC into a "super loud mode", play around with the upper nibble to hear the effect.

Hi Seb, Before I search for the answer myself let me ask you this question if you come around here :
How many CC could I send to the teensy at once? the obvious reason is to recall GENMDM patches on the fly with program change events on the same channel. The instruments patches will be stored in my FMDRIVE 2612 VST. (link for those who did not know: http://youtu.be/nxAKR9f437w ).
Happy Nu Year by the way!

You can send at least one instrument's worth "instantaneously" easily.

I mean, if you hit it with all 100 MIDI CCs or whatever, you will come up against a slight drop or unexpected glitch in audio at times, but nothing fatal and nothing to worry about.

I have updated the GenMDM Tools for Max for Live to include an instrument / settings dumping feature, and it works well. smile

Not sure if that answers your question as such, but yeah...
