Recording a Bulk Dump
IMPORTANTIMPORTANTIMPORTANTIMPORTANT
If your MIDI instrument does not offer a way to initiate a dump, you have to send a
Dump Request message from Cubase to start the dump. In that case, use the MIDI
SysEx Editor to insert the specific Dump Request message (see the instrument’s
documentation) at the beginning of a MIDI track. When you activate recording, the
Dump Request message is played back (sent to the instrument), the dump starts
and is recorded.
PROCEDURE
1. Do one of the following:
• On Microsoft Windows, select File > Preferences.
• On Mac, select the Cubase menu, and select Preferences.
2. In the Preferences dialog, select MIDI > MIDI Filter.
3. In the Record section, deactivate the SysEx checkbox to make sure that the
recording of SysEx data is not filtered.
This way, SysEx messages are recorded but not echoed back to the instrument. This
can lead to unpredictable results.
4. Activate recording on a MIDI track and initiate the dump from the front panel
of the instrument.
5. When you are done recording, select the new part and select MIDI > Key
Editor.
6. Open the controller lane for the part.
This allows you to check that the SysEx dump was recorded. There should be one or
several SysEx events in the controller lane.
Transmitting a Bulk Dump Back to a Device
PREREQUISITE
Route the MIDI track with the System Exclusive data to the device. Check your
device’s documentation to find details about which MIDI channel should be used,
etc.
PROCEDURE
1. Solo the track.
2. Make sure that the device is set up to receive SysEx messages.
3. If necessary, put the device in Standby to Receive System Exclusive mode.
4. Play back the data.
