91 Saving Patterns and Songs to a MIDI data filer
Another fantastic thing about MIDI is all the data storage options it gives you. With the use of a MIDI data
filer (such as the Yamaha MDF3) or MIDI sequencing software (such as the included XGworks lite), you can
save all your valuable Song and User Pattern data for future recall — any time you need it. Plus, you can
amass a whole library’s worth of Songs and Patterns on just a few floppy disks.
The technological magic that makes this possible goes by the mundane name of “Bulk Send.” In this Tip,
you’ll learn how to use Bulk Send to save your precious data. Then in Tip 92 below, you’ll learn how to load
it all back to the AN200.
1 Set up the AN200 and the recording device.
Connect the two as shown with a standard MIDI cable.
Setting up the other device for recording data may involve some additional steps; refer to the relevant
owner’s manual for details.
2 Call up the Bulk Send setting on the AN200.
Hold down [SHIFT] and press button [15] (MIDI BULK).
3 Select the type of data to be saved — Pattern, Song, or
All.
Continue to hold [SHIFT] and press button [15] repeatedly to select the
desired type. To save all three data types, select “ALL.”
4 Go back to the connected device and start recording.
This operation too may differ depending on your particular device. On most
sequencing software (such as XGworks lite), this can be as simple as click-
ing the Record button.
5 Execute the Bulk Send operation.
Press the flashing [15] button once to enable Bulk Send, then once more to
actually start the operation. (To cancel, press [EXIT].)
