Basics of Equalization 3
This process is not affected by the setting of the MIDI Out/Thru
Select function. When you instruct the unit to Transmit, the sys-ex
data will be sent whether the MIDI jack is set to Out or Thru.
Receiving System Exclusive bulk dumps
The DEQ830 is always ready to receive a new bank of programs
and curves into its internal memory. Once an external device
begins sending the proper sys-ex data, the DEQ830 will display
the message “Rcving,” short for “receiving.” When the sys-ex
transmission is complete, the DEQ830 will let you know by
displaying the message “Done.” While the bank is being received,
front panel edits and mode changes will be disabled.
Warning! Sending a sys-ex
bank into the DEQ830 will
overwrite the internal
memory. Make sure you
h
ave backed up internal
m
emory before you load in
a
new set of programs and
c
urves.
There is one thing you can do during this time, though. If you
change your mind in the middle of the transmission and realize
you’ve loaded in the wrong bank (or worse, you forgot to back up
the programs and curves first), you can interrupt the transmission
by pressing the [PROGRAM] button. The display will show the
word “Aborted” and then return to Program mode. But you’d
better act quickly, as the whole process takes only about 30
seconds.
And unfortunately, as soon the message “Rcving” is displayed the
DEQ830 begins overwriting the Program and Curve Banks. If you
saw that message you will have lost some data. But if you
interrupted the transmission, you will have managed to save some
of the programs and curves.
