8.2.16Wheel Mode

This parameter determines whether or not the modulation wheel can be used to edit parameters like a value dial.

Normal: The wheel functions as a performance wheel and controls the CC

controller that is assigned in the setup menu (Default).

Edit: The wheel is used to edit parameters. The value won’t change until the wheel reaches the position of the previously set the value. It can be used to edit the following parameters:

*Setup parameters in the MENU except Zone mode and Sound *Setup name when stored

*Function SW assign, EFX/REVERB type *Tempo of the metronome

Note:

When the Wheel Mode is set to “Edit”, the normal function of the wheel is ineffective,and the wheel parameters will show an asterisk.

8.2.17Dump Mode

This parameter determines whether or not the dump data is divided into plural Packets. When a Personal Computer is used for the Dump, if the performance of the computer or sequencer is insufficient, the MP8II may not dump information correctly. In such a case, please set the Dump mode to “Divide”.

Normal: Dump data is transmitted as one exclusive data.[default]

Divide: Dump data is transmitted as plural Packets -each max 128bytes. The “Divide” transmission requires more time than “Normal”.
