Ah, that does make sense. Now that you mention it, GS does have a few sysex
messages in it. Since I'm bot at all familiar with sysex, I might as well leave
it alone. I'll still look at it at some poit and have a definite idea of if
it's too hard or not for me to mess with.

You are correct, in that sysex usually only apply to one synth or one line of
synths. Most typically, we see gs, or xg sysex. however, especially in the case
of gs sysex, they can be picked up by a range of synths, including, for
example, the yamaha software synths. So, my thinking is your listening to gs
final fantasy music... and of course, the sysex would be recognised by both the
vsc and xg synths.

Sorry for double-posting, but I just found out that it is indeed system
exclusive, after playing with it a bit more. I deleted the system exclusive
stuff and the effect no longer made itself known. Now, the question is, where
would this information be found out? I thought system exclusive was only for
one line of devices or one specific device.

Hi guys,
I was just listening to some Final Fantasy 7 and Final Fantasy 8 midis,
and in some of them, they somehow managed to change the decay time of the
reverb, and in some rare cases I have heard them adjust other attributes of the
reverb as well, like the damping, but I can't be sure. It works over a few
different synths I have, like xM play and Yamaha synths, and the Roland VSC
software synth, so this has got to be something that is supported in more than
one line of synth, especially if XM Play supports it. So, controller 91 adjusts
the amount of reverb, what about the other stuff? Is it system exclusive or
just a weird combination of controllers? I have some sample midis if needed.
Does anyone know anything about this or do we need samples of this rare
phenomenon lol.
