Transmitting the AW16G's settings via MIDI
In the BULK page of the UTILITY screen, you can trans-
mit various internal settings of the AW16G (scene memo-
ries, libraries, settings of the UTILITY screen, etc.) as bulk

this bulk data on a MIDI sequencer or similar device,
you will then be able to restore these settings whenever
desired.
To access this page, repeatedly press the [UTILITY] key
or hold down the [UTILITY] key and use the CURSOR
