Lexicon 480L Owner's Manual
Dump MIDI Program Table Map
The 480L has a program map that translates MIDI
program change numbers to 480L program or register
numbers. There is a map for each Machine, A and B.
As in the ACTIVE function, the SRC slider selects from
three possibilities: Machine A, Machine B or Machine
A +B.The MIDI MAP bulk dump function dumps the
selected map(s) to the MIDI port. Dump action is
started holding STO and pressing REG. The format for
the MIDI map is documented in Appendix A MIDI and
the 480L. The LARC displays "DUMPING MAP A,"
"DUMPING MAP B," or "DUMPING MAPS," depending
on selection. When the dump is complete, the
LARC displays "MAP (A, B or A+B) DUMPED."
Dump Controls
The SRC slider is not needed for this function. After
moving the slider to CONTROLS and pushing STO/
REG, a copy of the current parameters available in
Control Mode are dumped. The following is a list of the
controls dumped:
• Configuration
• Sample Rate
• Clock Source
• Input Source
• Audio Mute
• Reg Protect
• Sysex Channel Device ID
• Sysex Automation Mode
• Sysex Receive Mode
When dumping is activated, the LARC displays
"DUMPING CTRLS." When complete, the LARC displays
"CTRLS DUMPED."
SysEx Restore Bulk Dump
Slider 3, on Page 6, labeled RCV, selects the destination
of MIDI bulk dumps loaded back into the 480L. The
simplest destination is the default, “ORIGINAL SRC”.
This function restores presets to wherever they originated.
An internal register is written back over the
current register at that location. See the message
format documentation to discover the source for each
register. Programs or presets can also be restored to
the active Machines. If the configuration is SINGLE,
then only Machine A can be restored. Otherwise, any
program or register loaded to the 480L can be sent to
either Machine A or Machine B with “ACTIVE A” or
“ACTIVE B” selected under RCV.
The bank modes are more complicated. If any of the
“INT BNK” or “CART BNK” selections are made, any
preset will be sent to the first register in the selected
bank. The 480L will attempt to place subsequent presets
sequentially into the next registers in the bank
selected. This should only be used to restore dumped
banks.
Restore Individual Presets
Loading a previously dumped preset will replace the
preset at the location with the MIDI SysEx version
when the RCV slider is set to “ORIGINAL SRC”. Other
settings in the RCV slider cause other actions to occur:
“ACTIVE A” or “ACTIVE B” sends the preset to the
appropriate machine as a running program
Selecting one of the banks, loads the preset into the
first register of the bank, or into a subsequent register
if it was dumped in sequence with a previously restored
preset.
Any attempt to restore a program to its original
source will be ignored. The error message "PROG
RCVD" will be displayed.
When presets are successfully restored, the LARC will
display an approrpiate message for each type:
"ACT A LOADED" or "ACT B LOADED" indicates that
an active algorithm was restored.
If a preset was received as an Internal Register, "1
REG LOADED" is displayed.
If a preset is received as a Cartridge register, "C REG
LOADED" is displayed.
