This function performs a MIDI “bulk dump” of the currently selected voice (i.e. the
voice currently residing in the DS55’s edit buffer). This means that the data for the

the DS55 with a MID! sequence recorder, since it allows you to record all neces-
sary settings prior to actually recording your performance data. When the se-
