Save/Load
To Export from one Tempest (master) to Another (slave) over MIDI:
1. Connect MIDI out on the master to MIDI in on the slave. (Tempest is
incapable of acting as a USB host, so transfers must be done using a MIDI
cable.)
If exporting a Sound from RAM, put both Tempests into
16 SoundS mode,
tap a pad on the master to select the source Sound, and tap a pad on the
slave to choose the destination.
If exporting a Beat from RAM, put both Tempests into
16 BeatS mode, tap
a pad on the master to select the source Beat, and tap a pad on the slave to
choose the destination.
If exporting a Project from RAM, put both Tempests into
16 BeatS mode.
Since there is only one Project in RAM at a time, there is no source or
destination to select.
2. On the master, press
Save/load and choose Export Sound/Beat/Project in
RAM over MIDI or Export Saved File over MIDI (Sound/Beat/Project)
to transfer the data. The slave does not need to be enabled to receive the
transfer. Just press eXPoRt now when ready. Exports from RAM load into
the slave’s RAM; exports from ash load into the slave’s ash.
3. Press the
again Soft Key to export another le or Save/load to exit.
To Export Tempest’s entire le contents for backup (Beats, Projects, Sounds):
1. Connect Tempest to the receiving device (computer running MIDI applica-
tion, etc.) using either USB or a MIDI interface. If using a MIDI interface,
connecting Tempest’s MIDI out to the device’s MIDI in is sufcient for
exporting.
