The Ghost's internal flash-RAM holds all the data for the 128 snapshots, MIDI con-
trol and machine control setups. This memory data may be "dumped" into an
external storage device so that another set of 128 snapshots can be programmed
in whilst retaining a backup of the original data. This is done by using the MIDI
System Universal Bulk Dump method. Various devices are available on which to
store the dumped data: these include stand-alone MIDI bulk-dump recorders, and
many sequencer packages and samplers.

l Connect MIDI OUT of Ghost to MIDI IN of the data recorder.
l Set the data recorder to be ready to receive a bulk dump.
l Press and continue to hold the STORE button on Ghost, then dab the
DISPLAY MODE button. Release the STORE button.
l The message "saving.." will appear in the 7-segment display, indicating that
Ghost's memory is being transmitted. When all the data has been transmit-
ted, the display will revert to its previous state.

l Make sure you have already backed up the current memory con-
tents of Ghost, if you want to keep it, as reloading will erase all cur-
rent memory!!
l Connect MIDI OUT of the data recorder to MIDI IN of Ghost.
l Press and continue to hold the RECALL button on Ghost, then dab the
DISPLAY MODE button. Release the RECALL button.
l The message "loading.." will appear in the 7-segment display, indicating that
Ghost is ready to receive a memory reload. (It will now wait for data to
arrive before doing anything).
l Set the data recorder to transmit the memory data.
l When the transmission is finished, the 7-segment display will revert to its
previous mode.
l If no data is received, or this mode is entered by accident, the waiting
mode can be cancelled by repeating the RECALL+DISPLAY MODE
sequence as above.
