3. Specify whether parameter change messages will be transmitted. Use value
knob 1 or the
▲/▼ buttons to make your choice.
NOTE: When the AX3000G receives parameter changes or other system exclusive
messages, its parameters, modes, or program numbers will change — regardless
of the “SYEX OUT” setting.

All of the AX3000G’s data (including its programs) can be transmitted and received
in the form of system exclusive messages. Exchanging this type of data with an
external device via system exclusive messages is known as a “data dump.” By per-
forming a data dump, the AX3000G programs you created can be backed up
(saved) on an external device such as a MIDI data filer or a sequencer that is able
to transmit and receive system exclusive messages. Then when necessary, you
can re-transmit that data back to the AX3000G to restore it. This provides a way for
you to organize large numbers of programs. You can also use this method to copy
program data between two connected AX3000Gs.
You can transfer program data in one of two ways; one program at a time, or all pro-
grams at once. When you transmit all programs at once, all of the AX3000G’s data
will also be transmitted, including Dump settings and MIDI settings.
NOTE: You can transmit data dumps regardless of the “SYEX OUT” setting. In fact, if
you want to transfer program data between two AX3000Gs, we recommend that you
turn the “SYEX OUT” setting “OFF.” If “SYEX OUT” is “On,” operating the knobs or
other controls may change the parameters of the other AX3000G in unintended ways.

1. Connect the AX3000G’s MIDI OUT to the MIDI IN of the device that will receive
the data dump.
2. If you want to transmit only one program, use Program Select Mode to select
the program you want to transmit.
3. Press the GLOBAL button.
4. Press the √ √ √ √ /® ® ® ® buttons to make the name display read “DUMP CUR” or
“DUMP ALL.”
“DUMP CUR” (Dump current program data): The data of the currently selected
program will be dumped. If you are editing the program (and have not yet
saved it), the current settings will be transmitted.
“DUMP ALL” (Dump all data): All of the AX3000G’s data will be dumped.
5. Put the receiving device in a mode in which it can record the data dump.
NOTE: For details, refer to the owner’s manual of the device that will receive the
data dump.
“OFF”: Parameter change messages will not be transmitted.
“On”:
Parameter change messages will be transmitted.
