in the display. Use the ADJUST wheel to
select the character at the current cursor

ENTER twice to store the preset with the
new name.
Backing up presets via MIDI
For backup purposes, the User bank can be
dumped via MIDI to either a sequencer or to
another G-Major 2. This is how to do it:
• Connect the MIDI OUT jack of your
G-Major 2 to the MIDI IN jack of either
another G-Major 2 or a sequencer (this may
also be the MIDI interface of a digital audio
workstation).
• Press the MIDI key and select the “Bulk
Dump” function using the UP/DOWN keys.
• When you have connected your G-Major 2 to
another G-Major 2, simply press ENTER.
The entire User bank will be copied to the
second G-Major 2.
• When you have connected your G-Major 2 to
a sequencer, let the sequencer record in
OMNI mode (all channels) and press ENTER
on G-Major 2.
G-Major 2 is always ready to receive a MIDI
bulk dump.
Simply connect the MIDI OUT jack of the device
you are dumping from to the MIDI IN jack of
your G-Major 2. If you want to use a User bank
that you have previously dumped to a
sequencer as described above, simply play
back the sequence containing the bulk dump. If
dumping from another G-Major 2 – see above!
