Transmitting Data to an External MIDI Device (Data Transfer)

Patch, setup and system settings will be transmitted to an external MIDI device. This operation is called bulk dump. Use this operation when you want to connect another V-Synth and play it using the same settings, or to save your data on an external MIDI device as a precaution against possible loss of sound data or system settings. To transmit data to an external MIDI device, connect the external MIDI device and V-Synth as shown in the diagram.
