Data dump

6-1. MIDI DATA DUMP ()

Data dump

"Data dump" is a function that transmits program or global data in the form of MIDI exclusive data, so that it can be saved on a connected MIDI data filer or computer. This can also be used to transmit data to another microKORG unit.

Do not touch the knobs or keyboard of

the microKORG while data is being transmitted or received. Also, never turn the power off during this time.

Some USB-MIDI interface devices may not be able to transmit/receive the microKORG's MIDI exclusive messages.

Transmission procedure

1Connect the microKORG's MIDI OUT connector to the MIDI IN connector of a device that is able to receive a MIDI data dump, and set both devices to the same MIDI channel.

2Hold down the SHIFT key and press the 6 key.

The display will indicate "."

3Turn the 1 knob to select the type of data dump that will be transmitted.

1Program ():

Data for the currently selected program

will be transmitted.

Program ():

Data for all programs will be

transmitted.

Global ():

Global data will be transmitted.

(p.58)

All ():

All programs and global data will be transmitted.

The 6 key will begin blinking.

If you decide to cancel, press the lit SHIFT key.

4Press the blinking 6 key.

The data dump will be executed, and then the microKORG will return to its normal state.

If you did not select a data dump to be transmitted, the 6 key will remain lit. If you attempt to transmit by pressing

the 6 key in this state, the display will indicate "---" and the data dump will not be executed.

For the size of the dumped data and the time required for each, refer to table s6- 1.

Reception procedure

Use the following procedure when you want to return previously-saved data from a connected MIDI data filer or computer back to the microKORG, or to receive data from another microKORG unit.

1

Connect the microKORG's MIDI IN

 

connector to the MIDI OUT connector

 

of the device that will transmit the

2

MIDI dump data.

Set the MIDI channel of the transmit-

 

ting device to match the microKORG's

 

MIDI channel. If you previously

 

transmitted data to an external MIDI

 

device and want to receive it into the

 

microKORG, set the microKORG's

 

MIDI channel to the same setting as

3

when it originally transmitted the data.

Set the SHIFT function MIDI FILTER

 

"SYSTEM EXCLUSIVE" to Enable.
