DATADISK FUNCTIONS

BACKUP ALL
FILES
This page makes a Backup copy of an entire disk. During the
Backup process,
DATADISK
will prompt the user when to insert
either the original or Backup disk, and will indicate when the
Backup is complete.
BACKUP TO MIDI
Rather than making a Backup copy of your data to a disk, it's also
possible to send all files out via MIDI to another
DATADISK
. All files
are sent out in alphabetical order.
REQUEST FUNCTION
DATADISK
can store samples as well as synth programs and se-
quencer data. In most cases, this will be stored by using the RE-
CEIVE function. Certain samplers require a request from the stor-
age unit before they will send the sample dump data. In these
cases, the REQUEST function will send the required request to let
the sampler know that it is available for a sample dump. There are
two pages which are:
REQUEST SAMPLE
DUMP XX
This page allows a specific single sample to be requested from the
sampler. XX is the sample number between 00 and 99 requested
by
DATADISK
from the sampler connected to the MIDI input. When
the
DO/YES
button is pressed, the transfer is handled as in the
RECEIVE MIDI data function.
REQUEST SYSEX
FOR YYYYYY
Product specific data dumps can be requested by
DATADISK
of
products that cannot initiate bulk dumps from their front panel. By
pressing the
REQUEST
button a second time, the user can scan the
manufacturers (viewed alphabetically) by using the
SCROLL UP
and
SCROLL DOWN
buttons. YYYYYY is the manufacturer name. After
the desired manufacturer is selected, pressing the
DO/YES
button
will display a model to be requested (also viewed alphabetically).
Various products from that manufacturer can be scanned by using
the
SCROLL UP
or
SCROLL DOWN
buttons. Only products that
require a Request are displayed.
