STEP 4: Enter the MIDI Patch Send Page on the MATRIX-12:
• Select MASTER PAGE.
• Select MIDI from the Upper Display.
• Select SEND.
STEP 5: On the Lower Display of PAGE MODIFIER, select the
destination Patch Number. You can use either Knob #4 or the X
SELECT buttons to select the Patch Number. The Lower
window will display:
DESTINATION PATCH = XX START
STEP 6: Press the START button and the MATRIX-12 will begin its data
transfer, which takes less than one second to complete. When
the transfer is completed, the display will switch back to the MIDI
Sub-Page Select display:
CHANNEL CTRLS ENABLES SEND RESET MUTE
STEP 7: Check the receiving instrument to verify that the data transfer
was successful. If the receiving instrument is another
MATRIX-12 or an XPANDER, typing in the 2-digit Destination
Patch Number on its Keypad will verify that the transfer was
good. This clears the Edit Buffer in the receiving instrument and
recalls the transmitted Patch.
To send all Patches (the entire contents of the MATRIX-12's
memory), follow the procedure as outlined above but turn Knob
#4 fully counter-clockwise so that the Destination Patch = ALL
The Upper display will will switch to read:
SEND ALL PATCHES TO MIDI
Pressing the ST4f?rbutton will begin the data transfer during
which time the START display will switch to read SENDING.
The entire contents of the MATRIX-12 will be transmitted via MIDI
OUT which takes all of 20 seconds to complete. When the
transfer has taken place, the Upper window will revert back to the
MIDI Sub-Page Select display.
When sending data via MIDI between two MATRIX-12s, the data
is transferred exactly, bit for bit. When transferring data via MIDI
connected to an XPANDER, with the MATRIX-12 as either the
Master or the Slave, certain parameters will either be changed or
ignored due to necessary Global and MULTI-Patch differences
in the two synthesizers. Refer to the discussion on DATA
COMPATIBILTY in the CASSETTE INTERFACE Section,
beginning on Page 80 of this manual.
