Memory Dump
The SysEx Memory Dump function (MEM DUMP) will send the contents of all 10 Preset memory locations for storage in a DAW application. Please refer to the documentation provided with your DAW software for information on how to record SysEx MIDI data.
1.Prepare a MIDI track within your DAW software to record from your Oxygen keyboard
2.Press the Advanced button on your Oxygen keyboard
3.Start the MIDI recording in your DAW software
4.Press the Memory Dump key on your Oxygen keyboard. The SysEx memory dump will begin immediately and the LED will display "SYS" to indicate that data is being sent
The SysEx file will appear as a new MIDI recording in your DAW software.
Restoring a Memory Dump:
IMPORTANT: Restoring a saved Memory Dump will permanently overwrite all current presets on your Oxygen keyboard.
Play back a MIDI track that contains a previously recorded Oxygen SysEx Memory Dump. The SysEx data is sent back to the Oxygen keyboard. The Oxygen LED screen will display "SYS" while receiving the SysEx data.
NOTE: Restored settings will not become active until a new preset is loaded on your Oxygen keyboard, or the device has been powered off and on.
Device ID (Oxygen 49 and 61 only)
The Device ID function (DEV ID) allows the assignment of a unique SysEx Device ID to differentiate between multiple MIDI devices of the same model, when sending or receiving SysEx data.
The default setting of 127 lets the keyboard respond to all incoming SysEx messages compatible with the same type of Oxygen Series keyboard controllers. However, if the Device ID is changed to any other value, the keyboard will only respond to SysEx messages that contain the same Device ID number. This is useful in situations where multiple Oxygen controller keyboards are connected to the same DAW software and SysEx information needs to be sent to a specific keyboard controller with a unique Device ID number.
1.Press Advanced
2.Press the Device ID key - the LED screen will show the current Device ID (for example "1.2.7.")
3.Enter the new Device ID number using the number keys
4.Press the Enter key
NOTE: If the Device ID number of an Oxygen keyboard is changed after a Memory Dump was recorded into a DAW application, any attempts to restore it will be ignored because the numbers do not match. If you do not remember the Device ID number used when the Memory Dump was recorded, set your Oxygen keyboard to Device ID 127 to ensure all Memory Dumps will be recognized.
For more information on SysEx messages and Device ID numbers, please refer to Section 10 - MIDI Messages Explained.
