Reading Spd-11 Data With The Spd-20 - Roland SPD-20 Owner's Manual

Reading SPD-11 Data with the SPD-20

You can use the SPD-20 to receive bulk data (bulk load) from the SPD-11. The SPD-20 has all of the
Instruments from the SPD-11 built in, allowing you to play back Patches and other data created on the
SPD-11.
fig. 86-a
When SPD-11 data is sent to the SPD-20, Patches 1–64 from the SPD-11 are stored in Patches 1–64.
When data is received by the SPD-11, the SPD-20's Patch data is overwritten.
NOTE
You cannot transmit SPD-20 data to the SPD-11.

the SPD-20. When ALL is selected, then Patches 1–64 from the SPD-11 are written to Patches 1–64
on the SPD-20.
