MIDI Transfer and Storage Operations: Chapter 9

To send a single Program via MIDI to a different Program number:

¿Follow steps ¿ through ¬ in the instructions above.

¡Press [PAGE] to advance the cursor to the lower section of the display.

¬Use the CONTROLLER [D] slider to select a Program number to send the Program to.

√Press [STORE] to transmit the data out the MIDI Out connector.

The procedure is similar for sending Mixes. Page 5 of the Store function allows you to send any one of the Mixes. In the case of storing a Mix, you may want to store each of the Programs used in the Mix. The “SEND ALL TO MIDI” command in Store mode is an easy shortcut to this (see above).
