The Scene Memory function

Utility mode procedures

In Utility mode you can make various settings related
to scene memory and MIDI. In this mode you can
also transmit a bulk dump to backup the entire con-
tents of scene memory on your sequencer or com-
puter.
Basic procedure in Utility mode
1. From Normal mode, press the
UTILITY switch in the control sec-
tion and immediately release it. (If
you press and hold the UTILITY
switch for one second or more,
you will exit Utility mode and
return to Normal mode.)
The indicator above the UTILITY switch will light,
and you will enter Utility mode. At this time, the
MEMORY display will alternately indicate the cur-
rently selected utility item and its value.
2. Repeatedly press the UTILITY
switch so that the desired item
appears in the MEMORY display.
Note: If the "
" (bulk dump request) item is dis-
played, pressing the UTILITY switch once again
will return you to Normal mode.
3. Use the
/
switches to modify
the value of the selected item.
For details on the selectable items and
their values, refer to the following
section "Utility items." For some
items, other switches are also used to
execute the function.
4. To exit Utility mode, press and
hold the UTILITY switch for one
second or longer. The M2500 will
return to Normal mode.
Note: If a MIDI program change is received while
in Utility mode, the M2500 will return to Normal
mode.
