Play back your external MIDI sequencer to transmit the bulk data to the
MC-09. While the MC-09 is receiving bulk data, the display will
blink.When bulk data reception ends, the display will indicate “BSY”.
This display will continue for approximately 60 seconds.
* Never turn off the power while "BSY”appears in the display. Doing so will
damage the data in the memory card and internal memory.

· System settings
· All patterns you’ve saved (User Patterns)
* Once you execute a Factory Reset, all the settings you’ve saved will be lost, being

SYSTEM SOFTWARE UPDATE
PROCEDURE
General Outline
The MC-09 uses a Flash Memory for the system program.
The Flash Memory updater (control program) is stored within the Flash
Memory.
Generally, data for updating is provided in divided SMF data. The program
version is updated by connecting a playable sequencer (MC-80, etc.) to the MC-
09 with a MIDI cable and then loading SMF data to the MC-09.
The Flash Memory consists of 2 areas and modes: FIX (with updating and test
mode programs) and USER (with main program) areas, and ALL (for both FIX
and USER areas) and USER (for USER area only) updating modes.
Updating is only available via MIDI.
Note:
If updating fails in ALL updating mode, the unit may become permanently
unrebootable. In this case, the current Flash Memory must be replaced with the
one already written in with program.
After updating, factory reset is necessary. Back up the user data in advance
since it will be reset. Details are described in “Saving and loading data”.
