and that there are some disadvantages by using SysEx, but it sounds exactly
like what SysEx is designed for, because the user needs a GUI to control
this settings and only some SysEx data must be changed real-time, most of
it could be done before making music.
1. I'm not searching for another way. This thread started because
a user didn't understand the current way, and asked how to use it.
2. The user doesn't need a separate GUI - Aeolus already has one.
You setup the registration in Aeolus' GUI, save it as a preset
and when necessary reload that preset using standard MIDI command
generated by a sequencer. There can be 1024 presets, and this
number could be extended. But an organist would typically use
no more than say 20 stop combinations for a complete concert
(with rare exceptions).
3. The stop control protocol is not meant for sequencers. It was
added for users who build organ consoles and want to use 'real'
stop buttons on them.
