Transferring Patches To and From the D-50/550

Transferring Patches from the D-50/550 to the VC-1

*You cannot bulk load data when a patch in the Preset Banks (Pre1 – Pre6) is selected.

*The VC-1 display does not change immediately following the bulk load. This is due to the fact that the work area is the bulk load destination (p. 37). You can confirm the outcome of the transfer by switching patches with the VALUE dial.
