Sequencing.
This setup allows you to use your Micron with a MIDI sequencer
or a computer with a MIDI interface. Attach one MIDI cable from
the MIDI OUT of the sequencer or computer to the (MIDI IN)
jack of the Micron. Attach another cable from the Micron's
(MIDI OUT) jack to the MIDI IN of the sequencer or computer.
For this setup, switch the Micron's Local Control setting to OFF
(in the [config] settings).

Saving Programs, Setups, Rhythms, and
Patterns via MIDI System Exclusive
The Micron lets you transmit Programs, Setups, Rhythms, and
Patterns to an external device (such as a computer, sequencer,
storage device, or another Micron synthesizer) via MIDI.
MIDI devices use a protocol called "System Exclusive" messaging
(Sysex for short) for transmitting and receiving these
communications.
Use the Send Sysex and Send SysEx Bundle commands from within
the [programs], [setups], [rhythms], or [patterns] modes to
send this information.
To save a SysEx on your computer, you can typically start your
sequencer recording, send the SysEx from the Micron, and then
save the MIDI file in your sequencer. Your sequencer may also
have features for receiving and storing a "SysEx dump" directly.
Consult your sequencer's reference manual
