4. Press EXEC. The display shows-for the duration of the dump; the
storage device should indicate that it is receiving MIDI data.
Note
• A group of 100 patches under 5,000 bytes of sys ex storage. "Dump all"
requires under 15,000-bytes of sys ex storage.
• Some sys ex storage devices have limited memory capacities. If such a
device cannot accept a dump of all patches, save each group of patches
individually.
2.3 MIDI Bank Selection
The original MIDI spec only allowed for 128 different patches, and with
devices like the Ultra verb II that include several hundred patches, this is
not sufficient. MIDI Bank Select messages, a relatively recent addition to the
MIDI spec, select individual banks of 128 patches to circumvent the 128
program limit. Although only a limited amount of MIDI gear can send
Bank Select messages at this time, Peavey has included the bank select
option to help forestall obsolescence.
The following Bank Select messages select the following patch groups:
000 U000-U099
001 U100-U199
002 U200-U299
003 F000-F099
004 F100-F199
005
F200-F299
Individual programs can also be selected within a bank, as described next.
2.4 MIDI Program Change Mapping
Sending MIDI program change messages from a sequencer, MIDI foots witch,
keyboard, etc. can select various Ultraverb II patches. Mapping allows any of
the 128 MIDI program change messages (000-127) to select a particular patch.
