MDR procedure: The SY99's MDR function pro-
vides a convenient way of storing data for de-
vices which do not have their own disk drive or
card slot, but are able to tranmsit their data as a
MIDI bulk message. Use the following pro-
cedure to save data for such devices.
1. Use 02 :Input MDR to receive the data from the
external device into the SY99's MDR memory.
2. Use 04:Save To Disk to save the data from SY99
MDR memory onto an SY99 disk.
When you wish to load the data back into the exter-
nal device use the following procedure.
3. Use 03:Load From Disk to load the data from
SY99 disk into SY99 MDR memory.
4. Use 01 :Output MDR to transmit the data from
SY99 MDR memory to the external device.
For details, refer to the explanations in each of the
following sections.
Important: Before using a newly purchased disk or
a disk that has been used by other devices, you
must format the disk using the Disk utility
4.Format Disk operation (page 271).
It is possible for data in internal memory to
be lost as a result of inappropriate operation or
other reasons. We recommend that you keep
backups of important voice, multi, system,
sequencer, sample, MDR data on a floppy disk
or memory card (MCD64). It is also possible for
the data in a floppy disk or memory card to be
lost as a result of static electricity, magnetic
fields, or other causes. For very important data
it is always a good idea to make double backups.
Note: The appendix contains a tutorial on using the
SY99's MIDI data recorder functions. Refer to
page 312.
