I made some tests and it seems that there is indeed a limit of 112 bytes
for outgoing sysex data.
Here's a very simple script using python-rtmidi I used to test (pass the
number of bytes to send as the first argument and an optional MIDI port
number as the second, if not, it will prompt for the one to use):
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys
import time
import rtmidi
from rtmidi.midiutil import open_midioutput
port = sys.argv[2] if len(sys.argv) > 2 else None
midiout, name = open_midioutput(port, api=rtmidi.API_UNIX_JACK)
print("Opened port '%s'." % name)
data = bytearray(int(sys.argv[1]))
data[0] = 0xF0
data[-1] = 0xF7
print("Sending %d bytes" % len(data))
midiout.send_message(data)
time.sleep(0.5)
midiout.close_port()
del midiout
I have never encountered this limit before and I am not sure whether
this has always been so, or if it is a regression. I suggest reporting
this at https://github.com/jackaudio/jack2/issues
