1.0 Sequencer Dump - Mirage Format
1.1 Mirage Format Wave Sample Requests
The SQ-80 will issue up to four Mirage wavesample absolute dump messages in order to retrieve ESQ-1 sequence
data from a Mirage. Refer to the Mirage Advanced Samplers Guide for more information on these messages.

End of exclusive
Requests the Mirage to send the data from upper bank locations FFOOH through FFOAH. The data sent in response
to this request is then checked to determine if the data in the Mirage is actually ESQ-1 sequence data. If it is, then
the size of the data block is also checked to determine if the receiving unit has sufficient available memory to load
the data. (This is used in the ESQ-1 to determine whether or not the sequencer memory expansion cartridge is
required to load the sequence data. It is not an issue with the SQ-80, which as enough internal memory to
accommodate any ESQ-1 Sequencer dump.)
1.1.2 Sequencer Variables Request
Requests the Mirage to send the sequencer variables and sequence header data from upper bank locations
0000H through 0132H.
1.1.2 Sequence Data Request
Requests to send the data from the lower bank starting at location 0000H. The end address is determined by the
data that was retrieved in the I.D. packet.
1.1.3 Voice Program Request
An optional request to send the voice program data in locations 1000H through 1 FFOH of the upper bank. The use
may specify whether or not to load the internal program banks of the SQ-80 with this data when the sequence
load command is initiated.
