Switching the sound generator mode (Inst Initialize)
The SD-90 has four
sound generator modes
:
GM2
,
Native
,
GS
, and
XGlite
. When you switch the sound
generator mode, the sound generator will also be initialized, as appropriate for that mode.

INST Init
GM2
, Native, GS, XGlite
This switches the unit to the sound generator mode
you select here, and initializes the sound generator
appropriately. (
"Switching the sound generator
*
Inst Init is where you select the sound generator mode that
you want to switch to. It does not indicate the current
sound generator mode.
Transmitting sound generator settings to an external
MIDI device
The SD-90 can transmit the settings of its sound generator as MIDI data. There are two ways in which
parameters can be transmitted: a group of parameter settings can be transmitted as a
bulk dump
, or a
single parameter can be transmitted as
individual data
. All data is transmitted in the form of
system
exclusive data
.
Use
bulk dump
when you want to save SD-90 settings on an external MIDI device. By transmitting a bulk
dump, you can also set the parameters of two SD-90 units to identical settings. By sending individual data
you can quickly and easily create data (e.g., for a sequencer) without having to look up each system
exclusive message.
Bulk Dump INST
A01
–A16, B01–B16
fig.7-1ab
Specifies the internal sound generator parameters that
you want to transmit when the bulk dump is
executed.
Bulk Dump INST can be carried out only when the
sound generator mode is Native mode.
Otherwise, "---" will be displayed, indicating that the
feature is unavailable.
BULK DUMP AUDIO
ALL
, AFX
Specifies the audio parameters that will be transmitted when the bulk dump is executed.
For details on transmitting individual data, please read the following sections.
• Transmitting Part parameters
->
• Transmitting parameters common to all Parts ->
"Editing parameters that are common to all parts"
• Transmitting sound generator effect parameters ->
"Editing the sound generator effects"
Selecting the startup mode
fig.7-1b
The SD-90 has two modes in which MIDI data is
transferred differently:
USB mode
and
MIDI mode
.
Here you can choose the operation mode that will be
selected at startup.
