If you want to get the settings from a device into the computer, activate the Data Types you want to retrieve, and select Receive from the MIDI menu. At least one type has to be activated, or there will be nothing for the program to retrieve, right?
While the settings are being transferred, the communications dialog will show up, indicating the status of the transfer. If there is a problem, you will be informed (see page 158). After the dump, a ">" sign will appear next to the Data Types which have been loaded into memory.
P This function can only be used when Cubase is stopped.This type of transfer does not mean the data is stored on disk, it only resides in computer memory. If you don't save to disk, it will be lost when you turn off power. You can stop the "download" by pressing [Esc]. The process will be aborted right after the current dump is finished.
