Deep Editing & MIDI Control: POD / POD PRO / FLEXTONE II TONETRANSFER VIA MIDI
9•4
so the POD now has all the same sounds as the Flextone II. Pressing any other
button on the transmitting Flextone II will abort the transfer, saving the
receiving POD from the big brainwipe.
Transferring Only Some Sounds - To transfer only one or more individual
sounds from one POD to another, here’s the procedure:
POD or POD Pro is transmitting: Start by having the trasnmitting POD
in normal operating mode (no MIDI button lit), and selecting the sound you
want to transfer. You can make edits to it if you like; the POD is about to
transfer whatever settings you make active. So, once you’ve got the sound you
want, press MIDI. Now press Save. Use the Up button to change from “A” to
“1 ” which means you only want to transfer ONE sound to the receiving
POD. Press Save again to make the transfer, or press anything else to abort.
One last important step: the receiving POD/POD Pro will now have its
Edited light lit, or if it’s a Flextone, its Save light will be flashing. In either
case, the sound you transferred is waiting to be stored into a memory location.
You must press Save on the receiving POD/POD Pro/Flextone II, choose a
destination, and then press Save again to confirm that you really want that
transferred sound to get stored at that location in the receiving POD/POD
Pro/Flextone II.
Flextone II is transmitting: (These instructions are also printed on the back of
the Flextone II near the MIDI jacks.) Hold the Save button and then press the
Manual button. The Channel A, B, C, D lights will flash on the Flextone II.
Press and release C button, then press Save again to make the transfer, or
press anything else to abort. One last important step: the receiving POD will
now have its Edited light lit and has the sound you transferred waiting to be
stored into a memory location. You must press Save on the receiving POD,
choose a destination, and then press Save again to confirm that you really
want that transferred sound to get stored at that location in the receiving
POD’s memory.
