Loading Presets via MIDI
The A‑16R can load Presets saved as either single Preset files or as All Preset
files that include the complete set of sixteen memory locations. As when
recalling a Preset from the internal memory, you must first enter Recall Mode
to load a Preset. (Recall Mode on the A‑16R is entered by pressing the R
ecall
button.)
Remember that you need to have MIDI cables properly connected between
the A‑16R and your MIDI recording devices to load presets. Connect MIDI Out
from your storage device to MIDI In on the A‑16R.
Loading One Preset via MIDI
To load a single Preset that was saved to a MIDI recording device, the A‑16R
must first be placed into Recall Mode. Remember that MIDI reception is
activated only when the front panel R
emote

switch is in the l
ocal
position.
While waiting for valid MIDI SysEx information, the A‑16R will remain in
MIDI Recall until a valid A‑16R MIDI message is received, or until you press
another front panel button to exit MIDI mode. SysEx information for other
manufacturer’s devices will pass through the A‑16R and be ignored.

When a SysEx transfer is complete, the system will display a status message
to confirm that the data was received properly. Two messages are possible:

• Invalid Data or MIDI Error ‑ all red Channel LEDs will flash
Press any A‑16R button to acknowledge the transfer status message and
return the A‑16R to normal operation.
