Receiving Saved Data Using MIDI
(BULK LOAD (MIDI))

Carrying out BULK LOAD automatically overwrites the
settings data stored in the receiving device. Note that this
will result in the loss of the data stored up to that time.

1. Connect the external device’s MIDI OUT to the MIDI

IN on the GI-20.

2. Turn the PARAMETER knob to “BULK.”

PARAMETER knob back to “PLAY MODE.”

* If you change to another screen (by pressing [SELECT] or by

turning the PARAMETER knob) while the data is being
received, any data that's been received won't be loaded into the
GI-20.
If necessary, start the Bulk Load procedure over from the
beginning.
When the data is received correctly, the dot on the display will
light.
