Mdr Mode - Yamaha MDF3 Owner's Manual

MDR M
ODE
In its MIDI data recorder (MDR) mode, the MDF3 is capable of receiving
MIDI bulk data from nearly any MIDI device and saving it to disk as an MDR
data file. It can then transmit this data back to the device that originated it, or
to any other device capable of accepting the data, at any time.
Receiving bulk data
The bulk data reception function is used to receive bulk data sent from another MIDI
device. The MDF3 automatically writes the bulk data it receives to disk as an MDR
data file using Standard MIDI File format 0. You can save up to 99 MDR data files on
a single disk.
Transmitting bulk data
The bulk data transmission function lets the MDF3 output the data which it has
previously saved as an MDR data file to a MIDI device capable of receiving it. The
MDF3 is also able to transmit the data from files created by the Yamaha MDF2 and
the QX3 in that device's MDR mode.
