I'm aware that Audacity and probably any other
program that has
access to libsndfile functions can read and save Midi Sample Dump
file format, but is there a program for Linux that can actually
transmit them over Midi? Can you do it with the amidi command?
man amidi
that should be all you need
[snip]
amidi -p hw:0 -s my_settings.syx
will send the MIDI commands in my_settings.syx to port hw:0.
amidi -S 'F0 43 10 4C 00 00 7E 00 F7'
sends an XG Reset to the default port.
amidi -p hw:1,2 -S F0411042110C000000000074F7 -r dump.syx -t 1
sends a "Parameter Dump Request" to a GS device, saves the received
parameter data to the file dump.syx, and stops after the device has
finished sending data (when no data has been received for one second).
