Saving Data to an External
Device (Bulk Dump) [F4]
You can backup your custom settings of all Programs
(voices, performances and other settings) by using
Bulk Dump to transmit the data to your computer or
some other external MIDI device.
n In order to perform a Bulk Dump, the appropriate MIDI
Device Number must be set (Utility [F5]
).
n After receiving the current voice/performance as bulk
data, the data will be lost if you select another voice/
performance or Mode. To avoid losing the data, you
should use Store function to store your received data
(page 73).
Copying Performance Part
parameter settings to Parts in
the Mixing mode
(Performance Copy) [F5]
This convenient operation lets you copy certain
settings of the four parts in a performance to the
Mixing program currently being edited. This would
come in handy when a certain performance has
settings that you want to use in your Mixing program.
Use this Job to simply copy the settings you need.
The MIDI receive channel settings are set to match the
basic channel settings (Utility [F5] [SF1] Ref. #176).
When the basic channel is set to "omni," the receive
channel here is set to 1. To select a group of
parameters for copying, checkmark the appropriate box
in the display.

cannot be used to restore settings for those
devices.
