This two parameter screen allows you to send various kinds of MIDI System Exclusive dump
messages from the DP / 4.
You can send dumps containing single presets or preset banks of all four types (1,2,4 Unit and
Config). You can also save system and MIDI parameters (such as preset maps and user
preference switch Range).
The first parameter allows you to select which type of preset you want to dump (1, 2, 4 Unit and
Config), as well as allowing you to dump all preset banks, all system global parameters and even
all user data contained within the DP / 4 (all preset banks and system global parameters).
The second parameter is only available when the first parameter is 1, 2, 4 Unit or Config. It
allows you to select an individual preset number (00 through 49), or when you scroll past 49, you
can select "Bank" which will dump the entire bank of the selected preset type .
Once the screen shows you what you want, press Write-Copy once more to start MIDI
transmission of data. You can also press Cancel- Undo to exit this screen without sending any
data.
1. At entry, the dump type defaults to the single preset belonging to the currently active unit,
whose preset type and number are displayed.
2. ROM presets and ROM preset banks may not be dumped from the front panel. System
Exclusive Dump Request commands are provided for external devices which need to extract
those banks. Refer to the System Exclusive documentation for more details.
3. System Exclusive message reception is "automatic" and does not have to be enabled by any
other action than making sure that System Exclusive reception is enabled and that the ID
number setting matches the ID embedded in the dump to be received (see System -MIDI
parameters 50 and 51). A confirmation message is displayed to indicate what type of dump
has been received when the dump reception is complete, or an error message if there is a
problem with the incoming data .
Refer to Section 7 - Storage for more information on using System Exclusive messages with the
DP/4.
