ADA MP-1 Classic owner’s manual
Hint: Once you've put all that work into programming your MP-1 CLASSIC, backup your
memory with System Exclusive Bulk Dump. If you can't get access to a disk drive put pen to
paper and document your work (an once of prevention is worth a pound of cure!). Another
good precaution is to make a second copy of your most treasured programs in another bank.
For example, if the programs you gig with every night are in programs 1 -9, copy them to
programs 101-109 for back up in case you accidentally modify one of them.

LOADING SINGLE/ALL PROGRAMS VIA MIDI
An MP-1 CLASSIC MIDI System Exclusive file (either the entire library or single program)
sent to the MIDI IN jack will immediately be recognised and uploaded. The MP-1 CLASSIC
will accept a MIDI System Exclusive message upload at any time provided the System
Exclusive protect is OFF. MIDI channel assignments are correct (see "Select MIDI Channel"
section of this manual), the cables are properly connected (see above), and the unit is in
Play mode. It is not necessary to press any buttons on the front panel to get the unit ready to
receive this information. After the upload the display will read either "LoAd SuCCeSSFul" or
"LoAd nOt SuCCeSSFul". The MP-1 CLASSIC will return to the Play mode. Uploading a
single program or all programs via MIDI system exclusive will write over previously saved
user programs which reside in the INTERNAL registers.
SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE PROTECT
Before loading system exclusive data you must turn System Exclusive Protect OFF. The MP-
1 CLASSIC is shipped from the factory with System Exclusive Protect turned OFF. If you do
not plan on using System Exclusive functions, turn the System Exclusive Protect ON, so that
your programs cannot be accidentally rewritten via SYSEX.
1. Press the STORE button. It will light.
2. Press the BANK-UP button and while holding the BANK-UP button down press the
number 8 button. This toggles the SYSEX Protect ON/OFF, meaning if it was OFF
before, it will now be ON, and vice versa.
3. The display will read "S-E ProtECt On" or "S-E ProtECt OFF" When the display
returns to a program number, the System Exclusive Protect is on or off as indicated.
Hint: To simply check what state the SYSEX Protect is in, without changing it, you can
repeat just steps 2 & 3 (without pressing STORE), and the SYSEX Protect will not change,
but simply display which state it's in (see DICTIONARY MODE section for further details.)
