8. Appendix
8.1 Activity display during SysEx
reception:
•
When a pattern SysEx is received faultlessly and
written successfully in memory, the display will show
the next message:
Receive Pat:xxx
•
Similarly, when receiving a song:
Receive Song:xxx
•
In case of error during the reception, the existing Song
or Pattern memory will not be overwritten, and the
display will show the following message:
MidiReceiveError
SysExDump
−
The cause of such error can be in an erroneous dump
format, or an excessive data density for proper
processing by the Schaltwerk. In this case, it is
recommended to insert small pauses between the 32
data chunks constituting the complete message.
−
This could also be the case when the machine is
already in a heavy processing load condition, running
many events at high tempo, while processing dumps
and lot of data from both MIDI inputs, leading the
internal buffer to overflow.
•
These error messages are temporary, and overwritten
during the next operation.
8.2 Complete initialization
•
The Schaltwerk can be completely initialized.
This may be needed
−
At first use.
−
In case of data corruption by a mains failure
−
In case of corrupted data that cannot be processed
properly.
•
The reset procedure is done by holding down the Start
button while applying the power to the machine.
The following warning is then displayed:
Init Menu!
FormatPresetRAM
•
After pressing the OK button (whose LED is not
flashing as usual), the following message appears:
Format total RAM
FormatPresetRAM
Afterward, the entire memory is erased and initialized.
•
This will take a few seconds, afterwards the Patterns
and Songs will be loaded with default parameters.
Init Part:1-128
Init Song:1-16
•
To close the procedure, the Schaltwerk will return to
its normal power-on status.
✕ This procedure will irremediably delete all
information contained in the Schaltwerk. This
function is normally reserved for servicing
purpose, or for users who want to quickly
restore the machine in start-up condition. It is in
all cases strongly recommended to save through
SysEx-Dump any data that you may want to use
at a later time.
