Transmitting sound settings etc. (Data Dump)
Program data and global data can be transmitted as a MIDI
exclusive data. The action of transmitting MIDI exclusive
data to an external MIDI device is called a data dump.
By performing a data dump, you can store various types of
data on an external MIDI device, or rewrite the sounds or
settings of a second MS2000/MS2000R.
Data dumps can be performed on the MS2000/MS2000R as
follows.
In Global mode Page 3F: MIDI Dump, select the type of
data to be transmitted (1PROG, PROG, GLOBAL, ALL),
and transmit the data dump.
1PROG will dump only the data for the program select-
ing in Program Play mode. When the MS2000/MS2000R
receives such a data dump, the settings of the currently
selected program will be rewritten by the data that was
received.
In this case, the data will not be saved unless you per-
form the Write operation.
PROG will dump the data for all programs saved in
memory.
GLOBAL will dump global data (Global mode settings).
ALL will dump all programs as well as global data.
If PROG, GLOBAL, or ALL dumps are received by the
MS2000/MS2000R, the data will be written directly into
internal memory; you do not need to perform the Write
operation.
When a dump request is received from an external
device, the MS2000/MS2000R will transmit the data
dump that was requested.
When you switch to LCD Edit mode, the data of only the
selected program will be dumped.
If you wish to receive a data dump, set Global mode Page
4D: MIDI FILTER “SystemEx” to ENA. If this is set to DIS,
data dumps will not be received.
If you wish to obtain the “MIDI Implementation” which
includes details of the MIDI exclusive format, please
contact a Korg dealer.
