errr, wtf? Why is that then? Both SDS and SMDI are well-documented and
common. It's a piece of piss to write an SDS transfer program, and
would be even easier if ALSA had a slightly less horrible API for
handling sysex (that said, it's the best of a bad bunch).
Incidentally, I've written a .wav to .syx converter to turn a sample
into a sysex file that you can just fire into the venerable Ensoniq
Mirage sampler. Great for crunchy gritty drums, especially with the
analogue filters.
