I'm trying to build Sysex - Control - Layer in the Environment of Logic (as i already did for several other Synths). But so far i had no luck getting there. In an article here at dancetech the writer mentioned creating one. He called it «Bassstat.lso»
http://www.dancetech.com/article.cfm?threadid=106&lang=0
On the following site i found a lot of information, but still i'm not shure how to do it:

Can anybody help me?
I've seen a lot of people asking questions about this, but no answers...
thanks,

why do you want to create this enviroment? Logic has changed alot since that article.
Do you want to simply control the basstation from Logic so you can put controller moves for the basstation into your song? There is other ways to do it.
also, are you using logic on mac?

thanks for your reply.
i want to be able to programm sounds in the BassStation via Logic and sometimes automate them too.
the thing is, that my BassStation Keyboard has developped strange malfunctions over the years. When i tweak it with the rotary-controls on the keyboard things tend to go chaotic, for example when i change the lfo speed, there's suddenly full pitchmodulation on both oscillators, although lfo modulation in the modulationsection is set to zero.
what works perfectly, is sending single sounds via sysex from the computer to the Synth. So it should also be possible to tweak the single parameters via sysex.
Since i already accomplished to build sysex-controls for other synths, i now try to do this for the BassStation Keyboard.
As you stated, logic has changed a lot, but the old environment is still there and working, i use these kind environment-controls on a daily basis in Logic Pro 9 (Mac).
unfortunately the BassStation Keyboard send and receives only 7 parameters as simple Midi-CCs (Filter Frreq, Reso, Mod Depht & 2x Attack & Release. So i have to figure the sysex-messages that i have to send to control all parameters.
any idea on that?
what are the other ways in logic to do this?
thanks
patrick

It has to be converted in Logic 7 tho, so you'll have to find an old copy of logic 7 and convert it first.

thanks a lot for taking your time to help me.
i did import your logic-song in an older version of logic and was able to plant the thing in a new song.
unfortunately i found out, that your BassStation-Control was build for the BassStation Rack Version, which is answering to some more parameters on simplier Midi-CCs. Mine (the keyboard version) is only answering to the 7 parameters mentioned above.
But i havend given up yet... there's one more idea i have with sysex :-).
thanks

Then i can PLAY from sysex librarian (it has a PLAY button to stream the sysex file OUT) and record that IN to logic and capture it as a little MIDI region on a midi track
Then i can open that little MIDI region in Event-List
Then using the Event-List "view" menu I can switch to view it as HEX
but then what? How the hell do you know what each string is? there are hundreds of lines
perhaps try that method but using a single preset patch sysex file, not a bank of patches, and then it might be clearer?
