I'm here :-)
Sorry, I don't have one complete document called "Fizmo Sysex
documentation" either. I do have a Sysex documentation for the MR/ZR
series, and when I made the module (or rather extended the existing
MR/ZR module) I had a lot of e-mail correspondence with the people at
Ensoniq who explained the differences to me. The Sysex doc for the MR/
ZR is on the web somewhere I think. Fizmo and MR/ZR are quite similar
under the hood. The main differences are (AFAIR) that the Fizmo has a
fixed number of oscillators (four) while this number can vary on the
MR/ZR; there's no such thing as "performances" on the Fizmo, some
parameters have extended ranges (filter type for instance), soma
additional parameters (arpeggiator etc) and so on. If you compare the
MR and the Fizmo in SoundDiver things will get clearer. There's also
a model and family code in the header of each Sysex message which is
of course different for the Fizmo. This can easily be found out using
SoundDiver's MIDI monitor.
If you or the person who is making that editor has any specific
questions I can try to help, but please consider it's quite a while
ago that I was into that stuff...
