Receiving a single sound from an external device (or other
A-Station)
Sounds (using MIDI SYSEX transfers) may be sent to the unit
at any time from a sequencer/computer or other A-Station.
When a sound is received the display will alternate with - - and
the current program number. The received sound will be heard
when a note is played. If the sound is to be kept it must be
saved in the normal way.
Receiving a bank of sounds from an external device (or
other A-Station)
As long as the Memory protect is switch off (see page 6) banks
of sounds (using MIDI SYSEX transfers) may be sent to the unit
at any time from a sequencer/computer or other A-Station. The
bank of sounds will be written into the bank of the currently
selected program. For example, if sound 321 is selected, the
incoming bank will be placed in bank 3. To acknowledge recep-
tion of incoming data, the display will show the incoming pro-
gram numbers while data is being received.
