2.5.2 MIDI setup
Fig. 2.16: <MIDI SETUP> menu in setup level 2
MIDI
ON = MIDI interface enabled, OFF = MIDI interface disabled.
CHANNEL
Sets the MIDI send and receive channels; the channels 1-16 may be selected.
SND MEMORY DUMP and RCV MEMORY DUMP
The complete contents of the ULTRA-DYNE PRO memory can be transferred via MIDI to another ULTRA-
DYNE PRO or a PC (SEND MEMORY DUMP). Conversely, the contents of the memory can also be received
via MIDI (RECEIVE MEMORY DUMP). The transmission or readiness to receive is activated in both cases by
simultaneously pressing one Plus and one Minus key each.
OMNI MODE
With the OMNI MODE enabled, the ULTRA-DYNE PRO can receive data on all MIDI channels. This may prove
useful to test the unit's response to incoming MIDI commands or in cases in which you are unsure of the MIDI
channel being used for the transmission.
CNTL
,
PROG
and
EXCL
These fields can be used to additionally enable the Sending (SND) and Receiving (RCV) of controller data
(CNTL), Program Change commands (PROG) and System Exclusive data (EXCL).

Caution: Receiving a memory dump will overwrite the existing programs!
3. APPLICATIONS
This section will cover a number of typical applications for the BEHRINGER ULTRA-DYNE PRO. Most prob-
lems related to dynamics can be solved using the following basic settings.
Please take the time to study the following sample applications in detail in order to ensure the optimum
deployment of the unit's broad range of features.
Primary applications and basic settings
Generally speaking, BEHRINGER ULTRA-DYNE PRO applications can be broken down into seven areas:
1. The GATE section removes noise and suppresses crosstalk in multi-channel operation.
2. The COMPRESSOR section increases the density of the program material and can be used to create
special effects and sounds frequently encountered in the recording and music fields.
3. The VIRTUOSO function ensures compression suited to your requirements and adapted to the character-
istics of the program material.
4. The ULTRAMIZER function automatically adjusts the input gain and Compressor parameters to suit your
program material.
5. The PEAK LIMITER section is designed to protect speaker systems, tape machines, transmission lines,
etc. from overload.
6. The TUBE simulation adds additional harmonics to the audio signal for a lively, warm character.
7. The EXCITER function is designed to enhance the audio quality after compression.
