“CC00”–“CC95”: When you operate a controller, messages of the specifiedcontrol change number 00–95 will be transmitted. Similarly, ToneLab will becontrolled when it receives messages of the same control change numberfrom an external MIDI device.PARAMETER CHANGE (GLOBAL “SYEX OUT”)When you operate ToneLab’s knobs or buttons to edit the value of a parameter,system exclusive such as parameter changes are transmitted.If you want ToneLab’s parameters to be transmitted to an external device, turn the“SYEX OUT” setting “On.” Normally, you will turn “SYEX OUT” on when using theSound Editor.This setting specifies whether ToneLab will transmit parameter changes.1. Press the GLOBAL button (3.5) to make the button light.2. Press the 1/PREV or 2/NEXT button (3.3) to make the name display (3.8) read“SYEX OUT.”3. Specify whether parameter change messages will be transmitted. Use valueknob 3 (2.5) or the ▲, ▼ buttons (3.2) to make your choice.“OFF”: Parameter change messages will not be transmitted.“On”: Parameter change messages will be transmitted.NOTE: When ToneLab receives parameter changes or other system exclusivemessages, its parameters, modes, or program numbers will change — regardlessof the “SYEX OUT” setting.BACKING UP AND RESTORING PROGRAM DATA (GLOBAL“DUMP CUR,” DUMP ALL”)All of ToneLab’s data (including its programs) can be transmitted and received inthe form of system exclusive messages. Exchanging this type of data with anexternal device via system exclusive messages is known as a “data dump.” By performinga data dump, ToneLab 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 transmitand receive system exclusive messages. Then when necessary, you can retransmitthat data back to ToneLab to restore it. This provides a way for you toorganize large numbers of programs. You can also use this method to copy programdata between two connected ToneLabs.You can transfer program data in one of two ways; one program at a time, or allprograms at once. When you transmit all programs at once, all of ToneLab’s datawill also be transmitted, including Manual Mode 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 thatyou turn the “SYEX OUT” setting “OFF.” If “SYEX OUT” is “On,” operating the knobsor other controls may change the parameters of the other ToneLab in unintendedways.48
BACKING UP1. Connect ToneLab’s MIDI OUT to the MIDI IN of the device that will receive thedata dump.2. If you want to transmit only one program, use Program Select Mode to selectthe program you want to transmit. If you want to transmit the Manual Mode settings,select Manual Mode.3. Press the GLOBAL button (3.5) to make the button light.4. Press the 1/PREV or 2/NEXT switch (3.3) to make the name display (3.8) read“DUMP CUR” or “DUMP ALL.”“DUMP CUR” (Dump current program data): The data of the currently selectedprogram will be dumped. If you are editing the program (and have not yetsaved it), the current settings will be transmitted.“DUMP ALL” (Dump all data): All of the ToneLab’s data will be dumped.5. Put the receiving device in a state in which it can record the data dump.NOTE: For details, refer to the owner’s manual of the device that will receive thedata dump.6. Press ToneLab’s WRITE/ENTER button (3.6) to begin transmission. Whentransmission is completed, the display will indicate “COMPLETE,” and you willreturn to the screen of step 4. (While “DUMP ALL” is being transmitted, the displaywill indicate “SEND.”)NOTE: While data is being transmitted, do not touch the buttons or knobs ofToneLab or its foot controller, and never turn off the power.RESTORING1. Connect the transmitting device’s MIDI OUT to ToneLab’s MIDI IN.2. Set the transmitting MIDI device and ToneLab to the same MIDI channel. IfToneLab will be receiving data that was previously transmitted to the externalMIDI device, select the same MIDI channel as was used when transmitting.3. Transmit the data dump from the external device.While ToneLab is receiving all data, its display will indicate “RECEIVE.” Whenreception has been successfully completed, it will indicate “COMPLETE.” If anerror occurs, the display will indicate “ERROR”; in this case, try transmitting thedata again.NOTE: For details, refer to the owner’s manual of the device that will be transmittingthe data dump.NOTE: While data is being received, do not touch the buttons or knobs of ToneLabor its foot controller, and never turn off the power.4. If ToneLab received data for just one program in Program Select Mode, selectthe store-destination bank and channel, and store the program. (p.20)NOTE: The program data will not be written into ToneLab’s program memoryunless you store it.If you received data in Manual Mode, settings other than for the amp section will beoverwritten automatically, so you don’t need to store the settings yourself.
