left)
When this is received, the overall panning will be adjusted
without changing the relative panning between timbres/
tracks.
Master fine tuning [F0, 7F, nn, 04, 03, vv, mm, F7]
(A value of 8192 [mm, vv=40, 00] is center, 4096 [mm, vv=20,
00] is –50 cents, and 12288 [mm, vv=60, 00] is +50 cents.)
When this is received, the Master Tune (Global P0: 0–1a)
parameter will be set.
Master coarse tuning [F0, 7F, nn, 04, 04, vv, mm, F7]
(Normally only the upper byte mm is used. A value of 8192
[mm, vv=40, 00] is center, 6656 [mm, vv=34, 00] is –12
semitones, and 9728 [mm, vv=4C, 00] is +12 semitones.)
When this is received, the Key Transpose (Global 0–1a)
parameter will be set.
Transmitting sound settings data (Data
Dump)
Data for programs, combinations, drum kits, user arpeggio
pattern, global settings, and sequencer data can be
transmitted as MIDI System Exclusive messages. The
operation of sending this system exclusive data to an
external device is called a "data dump."
By performing a data dump, you can store the KROME's
sounds and settings on an external device, or rewrite the
sounds and settings of another KROME.
There are the following two types of data dump.
• When you use the Dump (Global P1) menu command to
dump data, various types of internal memory data will be
transmitted. If this data is received by the KROME, the
data will be written directly into internal memory, and it
will not be necessary to perform the Write operation. (See
"Sending SysEx data dumps" on "Receiving SysEx data
dumps" on page 219)
• If the Enable Exclusive (Global 1–2b) setting is checked,
data will also be dumped in response to a Dump Request
message. This data is transmitted and received on the
global MIDI channel.
When the KROME receives this data, the data will be
written into the edit buffer. If you want to save the data
into internal memory, you'll have to execute the Write
operation. This can be done either by executing the Write
operation (See "Writing to internal memory" on page 115
of the Operation guide) on the KROME itself, or by a
MIDI System Exclusive program write request, combina‐
tion write request, drum kit write request, user arpeggio
pattern write request or global setting write request.
Editing sounds via SysEx
By using various MIDI System Exclusive data dumps, you
can rewrite all programs or an individual program. By using
parameter change messages, you can edit individual
parameters as follows.
Parameter changes
• In Program mode, all parameters other than the program
name can be edited.
• In Combination mode, parameters other than the
combination name can be edited.
• In Sequencer mode, you can edit the track parameters in
P0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, and the P7: Arpeggiator/Drum Track,
P8: Insert Effect, and P9: Master/Total Effect parameters.
(See "System Exclusive events supported in Sequencer
mode" on page 191)

Drum kit parameter change and user arpeggio pattern pa-
rameter change
In Global mode, you can edit drum kit and user arpeggio
pattern.
Since the other global parameters or Sequencer mode
musical data cannot be edited, you will use data dumps to
transfer this data.
The global MIDI channel is used to transmit and receive this
data.
First check the Enable Exclusive (Global 1–2b) setting to
enable transmission and reception of exclusive data. When
you switch modes on the KROME, a mode change will be
transmitted. When you edit individual parameters,
parameter change messages will be transmitted.
When these messages are received, the same editing
operation will be performed as on the transmitted device.
Cautions regarding data dumps and sound editing
• After MIDI System Exclusive data has been received and
processed, a Data Load Completed message will be
transmitted. The control master device must not transmit
the next message until this message is received (or until a
sufficient interval of time has elapsed).
• When you change use parameter changes to edit, the
changes will affect the data in the edit buffer and will not
be stored in internal memory unless you Write, so that the
changes will be lost if you re‐select the program or
combination. The Write operation can be performed by a
MIDI System Exclusive Program Write Request or
Combination Write Request message, in addition to the
usual method of using the KROME's buttons. For more
information, please see "Writing to internal memory" on
page 113 of the Operation guide.
• There is no need to write a song, but it will not be backed‐
up when you turn off the power. Important data that you
want to keep must be saved to an SD card before you turn
off the power. For more information, please see "Saving
to SD card" on page 113 of the Operation guide.
If notes are "stuck"
If some problem causes "stuck" notes that continue
sounding even though you are no longer playing on the
keyboard or via MIDI, you can stop the sound by switching
the KROME's mode.
Playing the KROME multi-timbrally from
an external device
The KROME can be connected to an external device and
played multi‐timbrally in the following ways.
• MIDI messages from the external device can play a
combination (16‐part multi‐timbral performance). You
can change the overall settings (programs, levels, and
effects) by using program change messages to switch
combinations.
• MIDI messages from the external device can be used to
play a song (16‐part multi‐timbral performance). Overall
settings (programs, levels, effects etc.) can be changed by
using a Song Select message to switch songs.
• MIDI Clock messages from the external device can be
used to make the KROME playback a song (set MIDI
Clock to External MIDI, and run the KROME's
sequencer). ("Synchronizing the playback of the
Arpeggiator, Drum Track function or sequencer") You
can change the overall settings (programs, levels, effects)
by using song select messages to switch songs.
