Sending Midi Sysex data from the M7 to another device.
You can select and send out different aspects of the M7 to be saved with your session for later recall, here is how to do it.
Sysex dumps from the M7 do not include MIDI channel information. If more than one M7 is in use, a MIDI patch bay
is recommended.
Program Dump:
This will send out the current running program, any edited parameters and the state of the user interface. The running
program can be a loaded preset, register or favorite, along with any edits. If a register or favorite is the basis of the running
program, an unedited version of it will be saved as well.
This can be used as a comprehensive session recall when all aspects of the M7 program must be saved. More generally, this
can be used to save User Registers and Favorites.
Press and hold momentarily PROG and the current running program will be sent to your receiving device. The TAP
light LED will flash when the data is transmitted.
System Parameters Dump:
This will send out the complete system set up of the M7, and is useful for resetting the M7 to a desired I/O configuration for
your session.
Press and momentarily hold SYSTEM and the system data will be sent to your receiving device. The TAP light LED
will flash when the data is transmitted.
Edit Buffer Dump:
This will send out the current state of all the edit parameters of the M7, and will allow for snapshot automation of any
parameter changes in the M7.
Press and momentarily hold EDIT and the system data will be sent to your receiving device. The TAP light LED will
flash when the data is transmitted.
Receiving Midi Data from an external device
When the M7 receives the specific data packet, regardless of the state the M7 is in, it will set itself to that saved state. This
will allow you to recall session data or automate the M7 using stored Program or Edit Data files from your midi sequencing
device.
Receiving Program Data:
When the Program Data file is sent back to the M7, it will load the program, edited parameters and the state of the
user interface.
If a User Register or Favorite was the basis of the stored program, the User Register or Favorite will be restored as
well. If an attempt is made to restore a User Register that is in a write protected User Register Bank, the
entire Program Data file is ignored.
The Tap LED will flash when a valid data pack is received. When the Tap LED lights, you can be assured that the
data has been restored as requested.
Receiving System Data:
When the System Data file is sent back to the M7, it will set the system parameter settings in the M7 to the saved
data. The MIDI address is not overwritten.
The Tap LED will flash when a valid data pack is received. When the Tap LED lights, you can be assured that the
data has been restored as requested.
