Here you can specify the MIDI note number for each part.
If you specify the same note number for two or more parts, the
sounds of those parts will be played simultaneously when that
note is received from an external MIDI device.
1. Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LEDs indi-
cate NOTE NO.
2. Press the part key whose note number you wish to change
(the key will light).
3. Rotate the dial to select the note number.
The factory settings are as follows.

Transmission
Here's how system exclusive data (pattern data, song data, or
Global mode settings) can be transmitted from the ER-1
mk II to
an external MIDI data filer or computer connected to the MIDI
OUT
connector.
1. Connect the MIDI OUT connector of the ER-1 mk II to the MIDI
IN connector of an external MIDI device that is able to re-
ceive MIDI data dumps (another ER-1
mk II , or a computer that
is running a MIDI data filer program or editing program, etc.).
2. Set the MIDI channel of the external MIDI device and the ER-
1 mk II to match. However when transmitting to a data filer, it
is not normally necessary to match the MIDI channel.
3. Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LEDs indi-
cate DUMP.
4. Rotate the dial to select the data that you wish to transmit.
Ptn : All pattern data
SnG : All song data
ALL : All data (pattern data, song data, Global data)
5. Press the Play/Pause key to transmit the data dump.
Reception
Here's how ER-1 mk II system exclusive data can be received from
an external MIDI data filer or computer connected to the MIDI
IN
connector.
1. Connect the MIDI IN connector of the ER-1 mk II to the MIDI
OUT connector of the external MIDI device that will trans-
mit the MIDI data dump (another ER-1
mk II , or a computer
that is running a MIDI data filer program or editing program,
etc.).
2. Set the MIDI channel of the external MIDI device and the ER-
1 mk II to match. However when transmitting from a data filer,
it is not normally necessary to match the MIDI channel.
3. Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LEDs indi-
cate DUMP.
4. Transmit the data dump from the external MIDI device.
Details on data dumps are provided in the MIDI implementa-
tion chart of the ER-1
mk II .
Consult your local Korg distributor for more information on
MIDI implementation
Do not touch the keys of the ER-1 mk II while a data dump is
in progress.
When the parameter select LEDs indicate DUMP, system
exclusive data can be transmitted or received even if the
MIDI Filter parameter "E" is set to "-."
If the MIDI Filter parameter "E" is set to "O," system exclu-
sive data can be transmitted or received in any mode.
