About SysEx Messages & Device ID
When transmitting SysEx messages, the individual control channel number does not define a transmit channel, but a device ID. This is made clear since
when you press the CHANNEL button, the CC symbol will not be shown and there is no ’c’ in the 3 digit display.
Device ID’s range between 00–127. In most cases, you should set the device ID as 127. 127 means the SysEx message will be received by all devices.
Please note that the device ID for a Sys Ex message assigned to a controller can not be changed using the Device ID buttons. These buttons are used
for varying the global device ID of the UC33.
Non-Volatile Memory
The UC-33 uses non-volatile memory so that you can continue where you left off even after powering down and restarting. The current UC-33
controller and channel assignments are stored whether you have stored your setup to a memory locations or not. Also stored is Draw Bar mode (on/off),
DATA LSB and DATA MSB data, global channel setting and last used memory preset.
Memory Dump
Pressing the MEMORY DUMP buttons will send out a number of Sys Ex data packets that represent the 33 memories you have set up in your UC-33.
This is a useful way of storing or backing up the contents of your memory presets externally.
You can record the complete memory dump in to a standard sequencer. To recall the memory dump back to the UC-33, play the MIDI track containing
the recorded memory dump to the UC-33, making sure that the UC-33 drivers are selected as output for that particular track.
The current controller assignments are not affected by a memory dump, or a memory send to the UC-33. Once a memory dump has been sent to the
UC-33, you will need to recall a preset to access the new memory settings.
Assigning A Device ID To The UC-33
Pressing the “DEV. ID” buttons will allow you to assign a Device ID to the UC-33. The default Device ID is 127, which means when a memory dump is
performed, that dump can be received by any UC-33, regardless of the Device ID setting.
If a device ID is assigned to any number other than 127, the memory dump performed will be specific to UC-33’s with the same device ID. If the device
ID of a UC-33 differs from the one recorded with the memory dump, the data will be ignored.
The device ID is a handy way of differentiating between multiple UC33’s. Otherwise, we recommend you keep the device ID setting as 127.
When you press the Device ID buttons, you will see the small 2-digit display on LCD display ‘id’. The 3-digit display represents the assigned Device ID.
You can enter a new device ID using the numeric keypad, or the ‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons.

Resetting The UC-33 To The Factory Default Setting
The UC-33 comes with 33 useful presets stored in it’s memory (for complete list, see Appendix H). You can reset the UC-33 back to the factory defaults
on power-up by holding down the +/- buttons.
Note: Restoring the Factory presets will erase all UC-33 setups stored to memory.
