# Mutant Brain: mapping its SysEx configuration format

> Mutant Brain's SysEx configuration format is mapped through comparisons of generated presets. The repository records message boundaries, four-byte configuration chunks, object IDs for inputs and CV or gate outputs, and parameter IDs for settings such as channel, pitch bend and trigger mode. Sample .syx mappings accompany the findings.
