2—System/MIDI Parameters
8 ENSONIQ DP/Pro Reference Manual
System/MIDI Parameter 19: ENTER to Send SysEx Dump Type
ENTER to Send SysEx Dump
Type=Bank 0 RAM Effects
Values: Selected Effect; Bank 0 RAM Effects; Bank 1 RAM Effects; All RAM Effects; All System Params (this
includes all System/MIDI parameter settings)
Default: Bank 0 RAM Effects
What this Parameter Does:
When this page is displayed, pressing the Enter button causes the DP/Pro to transmit a System
Exclusive (SysEx) data dump of the object selected on the lower line of the display. This provides an
opportunity to store the contents of the DP/Pro’s memory in an external MIDI storage device.
Note: Since SysEx data records the MIDI Device ID number of the sending device, make sure
to note the setting of the MIDI Device ID parameter (System/MIDI parameter 6) when
performing the dump. In order to successfully reload the data back into the DP/Pro at a later
date, this Device ID number must match the one embedded in the SysEx data. In addition, the
Accept SysEx Msgs System/MIDI parameter (12) must be set to “Yes” in order for the DP/Pro
to reload SysEx data transmitted from an external source.

Many of the DP/Pro’s algorithms contain time-based elements—LFOs and delays, for example—that
can be synchronized to a timing reference. This provides a high degree of timing control of those
elements. The DP/Pro provides its own internal clock for such purposes, or it can synchronize its
algorithms to MIDI clocks received from and external MIDI device.
Tip: The algorithm parameter charts in Chapter 6 of the DP/Pro Reference Guide show which
algorithm elements are capable of synchronization. Any parameter with the letter “T” (for
“Time”) in its Attributes column can be synchronized.
The DP/Pro’s internal clock can be set by manually adjusting the System/MIDI System Tempo
parameter, or by tapping out the desired tempo on the Tap button. The DP/Pro can be set to respond
to Tap button strikes in a variety of ways.
