Using Initial Setup Send with a Sequencer
The most common use for the Initial Setup Send function is in recording a song
on a sequencer that is intended for playback with the PSR-282. Essentially, this
takes a “snapshot” of the PSR-282 settings and sends that data to the sequencer.
By recording this “snapshot” at the start of the song (before any actual perfor-
mance data), you can instantly restore the necessary settings on the PSR-282.
Provided there is a pause in the song, you could also do this in the middle of a
song — for example, completely changing the PSR-282 settings for the next sec-
tion of the song.

First, set up the sequencer for recording.

The actual procedure may differ depending on your particular equipment and
software.
Ideally, you should leave two or more measures of silence (no performance
data) before the song begins. The Initial Setup data should then be recorded
to this space in the song.

Select the MIDI operations.

Press the right Overall button, repeatedly if necessary, until MIDI is selected.
• If, for some reason, some prob-
lem occurred in the data recep-
tion, a “RcvError” message is
shown in the display. Check all
connections and settings and try
the operation again.
