Documentation
If you want to create your own controller you can read the
RK-002 Sysex documentation
Since the webMIDI is still a but dodgy on different browsers we have also created a few sysex files with commands you would like to use on the RK-002, for example the 'set midi channel' command.
This .zip file contains a series of sysex files you can play with e.g.
MIDIOX (PC) or
Sysex Librarian (Mac)
