The top line gives you the usual mode reminder, and shows you which of the ten entries you’re looking at. The cursor is highlighting the object (program or setup) that’s stored in that entry.

The easiest way to edit the bank is to use the Chan/Bank buttons to scroll through the ten entries. The entry number changes both at the top of the page, and at the left of the page. As the entry number changes, the highlighted objects at the center of the page change as well, showing you what’s stored in each entry. On the page above, for example, entry 9 is the current entry. The Type parameter tells you that the object stored at entry 9 is a program. The cursor highlights the program’s ID and name.

In this example, you could select a different program with your favorite data entry method. If you wanted to store a setup in that entry instead of a program, you would move the cursor to the Type parameter and change its value to Setup. The list of objects would change from the program list to the setup list, and you could move the cursor back to the setup list and select another setup. When you select the Entry or Type parameter, the list of objects at the right disappears, leaving only the currently selected object. This makes it easier to see when it’s not highlighted by the cursor.

When you’ve filled each entry with the object you want, press the Name soft button if you want to rename the bank, or press the Save soft button to begin the save procedure. Press the Dump soft button to dump the bank via MIDI System Exclusive.
