Transmitting and Receiving
MIDI Data
On the GT-8, you can use Exclusive messages to provide
another GT-8 with identical settings, and save effect settings
on a MIDI sequencer or other device.
Transmitting data this way is called “Bulk Dump,” while
receiving such data is referred to as “Bulk Load.”
Transmitting Data to an External
MIDI Device (Bulk Dump)
The following types of data can be transmitted. You can
transmit data by specifying the range from the start to the
end of transmission.
Making the Connections
When Saving to a MIDI Sequencer
Connect as shown in the figure below, and put the sequencer
in the state where it is ready to receive Exclusive messages.

Program Change messages. For more details, reefer to p. 85.
