Send Midi Sysex; Send Syx Bundle; Delete Setup; Store A Copy - Alesis MICRON Reference Manual

5
Setups

9. Send MIDI sysex?

Choose this option to send the setup to a computer or other MIDI
storage device using the Micron's (MIDI OUT) port.
This allows you to back up your setups to your computer, or share
them with your friends or over the internet. See page 95 for details
on what Sysex is and how to use it.

10. Send syx bundle?

Choose this option to send both the setup and its program,
patterns, and rhythms to a computer or other MIDI storage device
using the Micron's (MIDI OUT) port.

11. Delete setup?

Delete the setup using this function, if desired. You will be
prompted to confirm this action.

12. Store a copy?

Unlike many synths, the Micron does not have fixed "banks" of
programs, patterns, and so on, each with a predetermined number
of storage locations. Instead, you may freely create and delete
setups at any time, just as you would on a computer.
"Store a copy?" is how you create a new setup. This option creates
a brand new copy of the current setup, differing only in name.
Now, when you make changes and hit the [store] button, you will
be storing to this new copy.
Whenever you want to start a new setup from scratch, you will
have to find an existing setup to base it off of, and then store a
copy. Don't forget to store a copy, or you might accidentally
overwrite the original setup.

Store your changes!

Be sure to press the [store] button after you're satisfied with your
changes. Otherwise, your changes will be lost when the Micron is
turned off.
However, keep in mind that you don't lose any changes when you
switch to other modes, so feel free to browse through programs or
rhythms without storing your setup.
You can even play other setups without losing your edits. Just hit
the [setups] button and turn the control knob. You can always
come back to your edited setup, just as you left it. The Micron
doesn't discard your edits until you start editing a different setup.
