User manual FENDER PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM WITH REVERB

[. . . ] An experienced MIDI/computer music composer will find most of this document familiar, even boring. A novice might find the document confusing. If you consider yourself a MIDI novice, then please take a deep breath and then dive in. PC System types Examples are shown below for a few specific system types. [. . . ] Choose or create a performance preset to get an appropriate guitar tone, and jam away! MAC OK, I am connected, how do I send MIDI music from my Macintosh to the GDEC?First, we will need some software to play MIDI files. For demonstration purposes only, we will use the Demo version of Metro 6. 2. 5 SE available for download at http://www. sagantech. biz/products. htm or at the Apple website http://www. apple. com/downloads/macosx/audio/metrose. html. After downloading the application, find and double click the Metro SE Demo icon. When Metro starts up, the first thing to do is set up the application to identify your MIDI device. Go to the "Setup" menu and select "MIDI Setup. . . " as shown in figure 2. This will bring up a window that allows you to select devices for which to send and receive data. The M-Audio Uno should show up as "1x1" in the pull-down menus next to each parameter (see figure 3). If the device does not show up, try the "Rescan MIDI Devices" button. Once all fields are set to "1x1", press "OK". The last part of the application setup is to switch off MIDI throughput. Copying presets from one PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM WITH REVERB to another One very cool option that should be mentioned first is the ability of the PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM WITH REVERB to copy presets from one GDEC to another. You can choose to copy a single preset or all of the user presets. For the purposes of this example we will demonstrate preset saves and loads using a shareware program called MIDI-OX. Fender does not distribute or recommend this or any other program for this purpose and is not connected with MIDI-OX. With that said, let's try a preset save. Setting up MIDI-OX, the SYSEX Configuration Download MIDI-OX (http://www. midiox. com/index. htm) and install it. After starting MIDI-OX go to the third toolbar selection, a folder called "Show the System Exclusive Window. " This will bring up the "Sysex View and Scratchpad" window. In this window, go to the "Sysex / figure" area. Change the circled parameters to the settings shown in Figure 6. Figure 6 Sysex / Configure window, change the circled settings Changing the delay number from the default of 60ms to 180ms helps the PC meter out the MIDI data at a slow enough pace to not overwhelm the small buffers inside the PC. Checking the "Save Dump directly to a file" box causes MIDI-OX to automatically ask for a filename. The above settings have worked well on test PCs, although your PC may be different. [. . . ] A progress bar will appear and show your presets being loaded to the PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM WITH REVERB. The PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM WITH REVERB LCD will show a "LOADING PRESETS" message. Once the loading is finished the PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM WITH REVERB will return to normal mode.
