UTILITY MODE
MIDI DATA RECORDER
Summary: This operation transmits MIDI bulk data
from SY99 MDR memory to an external device.
Procedure:
From: MIDI data recorder utility job
directory
Select: 01:Output
Select: the MDR data you wish to transmit
To transmit: the data press F8 (Go)
To quit: without transmitting press EXIT
Data Name (1-99): This displays the number
and name of each set of bulk data. A name can
be assigned to each set in MDR utility 2.MDR
input (page 281).
Block (1-32767): This displays the number of
F0-F7 blocks in each set of MIDI bulk: data.
Int (0...10): This specifies the interval inserted
between blocks of data. If you enter a value of 0,
an interval of 100 ms (milliseconds) will be
inserted between each F0-F7 block of data, or
after each 4096 bytes of data, should a single
block exceed this length. You may enter a num-
ber from 1 to 10 to specify the number of 100 ms
intervals inserted between each F0-F7 block of
data, or after each 1024 bytes of data, should a
single block exceed this length. (Thus, if you
enter a 3, a 300 ms interval will be inserted be-
tween each block of data, and after each kilobyte
of data in blocks longer than one kilobyte.) Some
devices are not able to receive large amounts of
incoming data in a short time. If necessary,
increase this interval time. The default is an
interval time of zero.
SndType (ALL, Select): You may specify all
blocks or selected blocks of the set of data to be
transmitted. If "ALL" is selected all F0-F7
blocks in the set of MIDI bulk data will be
transmitted. If "Select" is selected, you can
specify which F0-F7 blocks of the data will be
transmitted (see
280
(JUMP #830)
below).

1. Output

From, To: If Snd Type
"Select", you can specify which F0-F7 blocks of
the data will be transmitted. Many devices dump
the contents of their internal memory as a
separate F0-F7 block (a separate bulk
message) for each type of data, and are also
able to receive individual blocks. Refer to the
system exclusive documentation for your device
to leam how it transmits and receives bulk data.
Output procedure: Before you transmit MDR data
to an external device, make sure that the receiv -
ing device is ready to receive the data. If the
device has a "bulk protect" setting, turn it off.
Also make sure that the MIDI OUT of the SY99
is connected to the MIDI IN of the receiving
device.
1. Move the cursor in
(1-99) you wish to transmit. If necessary, press
Fl
down.
2. If necessary, increase the interval time in
most cases the default value of 1 will be suffi-
cient.
3. If desired, specify in
blocks of the selected set of data will be trans-
mitted.
4. To transmit the data press F8 (Go). While the
data is being transmitted, the bottom line of the
display will show "MDR Transmitting!", and
show the number of blocks that have been
transmitted.
5. When transmission is complete, press any key
to exit the display.
