SysEx transfers to the MPD32
You can also load preset data into the MPD32 from an external
source by “playing” a SysEx file into the MPD32. This can be done
with a variety of SysEx applications, many of which are widely and
freely available over the Internet.
1. Make sure that the device is connected to the MPD32 either
via the USB or the MIDI IN port.
2. Make sure that you are in Preset Mode.
3. “Play” the SysEx file on your external device or computer.
Please note that when transferring SysEx information into the
MPD32, the data will override the data of the original Preset which
was sent to your SysEx editor. For example, if you transfer Preset
5 to your SysEx editor and then send it back to the MPD32, the
data will overwrite Preset 5.
