ToneLab SE Owner's manual - Vox

1. Press the GLOBAL button (3.4).
2. Press the √, ® buttons (3.2) to make the name display (3.8) read “SYEX
OUT.”
3. Specify whether parameter change messages will be transmitted. Use value
knob 3 (2.2) or the ▲, ▼ buttons (3.1) to make your choice.
“OFF”: Parameter change messages will not be transmitted.
“On”: Parameter change messages will be transmitted.
NOTE: When ToneLabSE receives parameter changes or other system exclusive
messages, its parameters, modes, or program numbers will change — regardless
of the “SYEX OUT” setting.
BACKING UP AND RESTORING PROGRAM DATA (GLOBAL
“DUMP CUR,” DUMP ALL”)
All of ToneLabSE’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 performing
a data dump, ToneLabSE 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 ToneLabSE 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 ToneLabSEs.
You can transfer program data in one of two ways; one program at a time, or all programs
at once. When you transmit all programs at once, all of ToneLabSE’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 ToneLabs, 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 ToneLabSE in unintended
ways.
BACKING UP
1. Connect ToneLabSE’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 (3.4).
4. Press the √, ® buttons (3.2) to make the name display (3.8) 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.
