Q) Dump/Load Function
1. DUMP PRESET (ALL, 1 to 224): Selects the preset to be dumped
as a midi sysex message to the MIDI OUT jack. A single preset
can be dumped, or all presets. If ALL is selected, the GLOBAL
data, followed by all 224 presets, followed by all 124 songs will be
dumped. To initiate the dump, press 2
nd
, followed by STORE. A
“DUMPING …” message will be displayed, followed by “DUMP
COMPLETE” when finished. For single presets, this will occur so
fast that only the “DUMP COMPLETE” message will be visible.
2. READY TO LOAD (ALL, 1 to 224): Selects the preset destination.
For example, preset 101 from a unit can be loaded into preset 21 of
another unit. If ALL is selected, the GLOBAL data, followed by all
224 presets, followed by all 124 songs will be loaded. No further
switch presses are needed on the receiving unit, rather it will just
wait for the data stream to start, and will then display “RECEIVING
MIDI” once data is detected, followed by “LOAD COMPLETE” when
finished. If there are errors detected in the data stream, the
message “DATA ERROR – NO LOAD“ will be displayed instead. If
this occurs, exit the Dump/Load function on each unit, check the
cable connection, then re-enter this function and try again.
There are two scenarios for use of the Dump/Load Function. The
first is the direct transfer of preset data from one BETA DSP to a
second BETA DSP. The second scenario is Dump/Load to a MIDI
recording device, which is usually a PC or MAC. For this you will
need a MIDI interface box, such as an iConnectivity iConnect
MIDI2, which interfaces MIDI to a PC via USB port. You will also
need software to record the sysex data and save it to disc, or load a
disc file and send to to MIDI. One recommendation ISP has is to
use the MIDI-OX program, which can be readily found via a web
search and download. The files so obtained can be attached to
emails.
Note that turning the Function knob to the DUMP or LOAD position
will disable MIDI program change capability. Turning the Function
knob away from this position will re-enable program changes, if
they are enabled in the global MIDI PC Rcv parameter. When
loading, the MIDI line should not carry any MIDI messages other
than the ISP Sysex format preset data, or an error will occur. There
is no MIDI Channel associated with Dump and Load messages, so
the setting of the MIDI Channel in the Global parameters does not
affect Dumps or Loads.
