Calculating a checksum of an Exclusive message
Roland Exclusive messages (RQ1, DT1) are transmitted with a checksum at the end (before F7) to make sure that the message was correctly received. The value of the checksum is determined by the address and data (or size) of the transmitted Exclusive message.

How to calculate the checksum (hexadecimal numbers are indicated by H)
The checksum is a value derived by adding the address, size, and checksum itself and inverting the lower 7 bits. Heres an example of how the checksum is calculated. We will assume that in the Exclusive message we are transmitting, the address is aa bb cc ddH and the data or size is ee ffH. aa + bb + cc + dd + ee + ff = sum sum 128 = quotient. remainder 128 - remainder = checksum

Tweak, Sample, Loop.

The MC-09 PhraseLab is a new creative tool for producing loops. Combining an analog modeling synth, step sequencer, 4-part audio looper, and effects processor, this instrument helps musicians develop loops with multiple variations. The MC-09 is a must for musicians, DJs and synth enthusiasts who work with audio phrases and want powerful analog-modeled synthesis at an affordable price.
-------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------Its a Synth! Its an Effects Processor!
First and foremost, the MC-09 is a powerful modeling synthesizer designed in the tradition of Rolands analog synths of the past. Using six control knobs, users can create a wide variety of monophonic synth and rhythm sounds which can be played via the MC-09s pads and 32-step sequencer, or MIDI. Even drum patterns can be programmed with Rolands popular TR-REC method, first introduced on TR-Series Rhythm Composers. With the PhraseLab, theres no need to hunt down vintage synths and drum machines its all here! Once the DSP synth has been freed up using the audio looper its time to add effects. Simply choose from one of the PhraseLabs four high-quality algorithms: Filter, Isolator, Phaser and Slicer. Effects can be applied to any of the four audio loops or to live inputs, and can be controlled in real time via the knobs for more intuitive tweaking.
-------------------------------------------------------------The PhraseLab in Action
Start by creating a synth or drum pattern using the step sequencer and record it as an audio loop. Repeat the process until you have drums, bass or any other sound recorded from the Line input. Then arrange up to four phrases with the sequencer and add effects. Once finished, you can save your workincluding synth/effect patches, sequences and audio loopsusing an optional SmartMedia card. Creating phrase-based music has never been this easy!
-------------------------------------------------------------Its an Audio Looper!
But the PhraseLab is more than just a synth. Its also an audio looper capable of playing back four monaural phrases up to six seconds each. (Phrases can be taken from the internal synth or external sources.) Best of all, looping is simple since the PhraseLab uses BPM and measures to automatically stop recording at the perfect point. Loops can be triggered with the step sequencer anywhere desiredeven at different pitches. And with the Divide !16 function, the MC-09 can automatically divide a loop into 16 slices for constructing new phrases.
