Section 11 — Storage Functions
EPS-16 PLUS Musician's Manual
Loading Sys-Ex data from disk to an external device will not necessarily clear the
internal memory. If there is enough unused sequencer memory to load and
transmit the Sys-Ex message, the memory will not be affected. If there is not
enough memory, you will be prompted to delete instruments until enough
memory is available.
Saving System Exclusive Data from an External Device
Using the EPS-16 PLUS' disk drive for storing data from external devices is a
three-step process:
1) first get the EPS-16 PLUS ready to receive the data via MIDI;
2) next, send the data from the external device to the EPS-16 PLUS; and finally
3) the data to a disk with the EPS-16 PLUS' disk drive.
To save System Exclusive data from an external MIDI device:
• Connect the MIDI Out of the sending device to the MIDI In of the EPS-16
PLUS.
• Insert a formatted double-sided 3.5" disk into the EPS-16 PLUS disk drive.
• Press Command, then System•MIDI.
• Press the Right Arrow button repeatedly until the display reads: MIDI SYS-
EX RECORDER
• Press Enter•Yes. The display shows the prompt: MUST ERASE MEMORY
OK? to warn you that any instruments, banks, sequences, and songs currently
in memory will be lost. It's not too late, however, to quit and preserve the
internal memory intact. Pressing Cancel•No at this point will return you to
the COMMAND/System•MIDI page without erasing the internal memory,
allowing you to save it to disk before proceeding.
• Press Enter•Yes. The display shows WAITING...
• From the external MIDI device, transmit the System Exclusive data. The
display will flash RECEIVING... while the data is being sent.
• When the full message has been received, the display will read
CANCEL=QUIT ENTER=SAVE to indicate that a complete message was
recorded.
• Once you have successfully received the Sys-Ex message (or messages), press
the Enter•Yes button to begin the process of saving the MIDI data to disk.
The following display appears:
• Name the file with a 12-character name of your choice using the Data Entry
Slider or the Up/Down Arrow buttons to change the underlined character,
and the Left/Right Arrow buttons to move the underline. Repeat until the
display shows the name you want.
• Press Enter•Yes. The display reads SAVING <FILENAME> while the data
is being saved. Or press Cancel•No to cancel the procedure for any reason.
