The CS2x cannot perform a Bulk Dump for Multis. Being able to transmit the Multi data would be useful how-

ever so that they can be integrated into the song and saved externally. This can be achieved, DUMP

REQUEST rather than a Bulk Dump. Here the sequencer requests all Multi settings from the keyboard and

processes them as System Exclusive data. This process is always called for when there is no Bulk Dump

available at the machine for a particular data group.

We assumed you don’t know how to program a Dump Request, so we have taken care of this nuisance for

you. The TOOL Disk “SYSEX” directory contains several files, all of which are listed in the FILE LIST

(Appendix).

It’s best to start with the “REQXGALL.MID” file. This will request all Part settings for the currently active Multi

via a Dump Request. This method will query not only the settings that can be performed at the machine (see

above), but all Part parameters that can be controlled via System Exclusive or Controller messages.

The following example will demonstrate how you can transmit your Multi settings to your sequencer with the

help of Requests.

X-PERIMENT:

Call up MULTI Mode, record a few sequencer tracks and setup the corresponding Parts on the machine. Save the result-

ing data as a new Multi with STORE + NUMBER.

Now load the file “REQXGALL.MID” from the TOOL Disk (“SYSEX director) into your sequencer song. Prepare a new

track to record the data transmission. Ensure that your sequencer isn’t set to filter System Exclusive messages. Disable

the MIDI Thru function for the time being. Now start recording. Assuming everything is working correctly, the CS2x

should now receive a Request command for each Part, one after the other, and respond by immediately sending all Part

settings as Sys-Ex data blocks.

You have now recorded all Multi settings into a sequencer track. Should you ever loose these settings, for

example through a machine reset, you can restore the Multi by simply playing back this track. If you ever

make additional changes though you will need to request the data once again to store the updates.

Finally you should make certain that the transmission was successful. The first step is to take a look at the

Event list of the recorded track - it should contain 16 Sys-Ex blocks. If it doesn’t, you will need to retry record-

ing at an even slower tempo.

Now disable the Request file (“Mute”) and change temporarily into Performance Mode and back to Multi

Mode (this will re-initialise all Multi Settings in the EDIT Buffer). Now play the track with the Sys-Ex data. If

your Multi settings are now restored, this EXPERIMENT has been a success.

As mentioned previously, this method is only available when you are working in Multi (XG) Mode. So does

that mean that the Multi Part (5 -16) settings need to always be made form the sequencer in Performance

Mode? Not necessarily - here too we can offer you a more elegant solution.

The Performance Mode does not allow the above mentioned Multi settings on the machine. But what are the

Knobs for! Let’s refer to them for the moment as Multi Part Controllers, following this layout:

Knob 1 (Attack) Volume Controller # 7

Knob 2 (Decay) Pan Controller # 10

Knob 3 (Release) Reverb Send Controller # 91

Knob 4 (Assign 1) Chorus Send Controller # 93

Knob 5 (HPF Cutoff) Variation Send Controller # 94

Knob 6 (LPF Cutoff) LPF Cutoff Controller # 74

Knob 7 (Resonance) Resonance Controller # 71

Knob 8 (Assign 2) Release Time Controller # 72

1 2 ... 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 ... 76 77
