To Export a Sound/Beat/Project from Flash over MIDI:
1. Connect Tempest to the receiving device (computer running MIDI appli-

device’s MIDI in is sufcient for exporting.

and press the neXt Soft Key.

eXPoRt now Soft Key.
7. The device records the SysEx data, which can then be named and saved for
backup and importing into Tempest.
8. Press the
again Soft Key to export another le or Save/load to exit.
To Export from one Tempest (master) to Another (slave) over MIDI:
1. Connect MIDI out on the master to MIDI in on the slave. (Tempest is
incapable of acting as a USB host, so transfers must be done using a MIDI
cable.)
• If exporting a Sound from RAM, put both Tempests into
16 SoundS mode,
tap a pad on the master to select the source Sound, and tap a pad on the
slave to choose the destination.
• If exporting a Beat from RAM, put both Tempests into
16 BeatS mode, tap
a pad on the master to select the source Beat, and tap a pad on the slave to
choose the destination.
• If exporting a Project from RAM, put both Tempests into
16 BeatS mode.
Since there is only one Project in RAM at a time, there is no source or
destination to select.
2. On the master, press
Save/load and choose Export Sound/Beat/Project in
RAM over MIDI or Export Saved File over MIDI (Sound/Beat/Project)
to transfer the data. The slave does not need to be enabled to receive the
transfer. Just press eXPoRt now when ready. Exports from RAM load into
the slave’s RAM; exports from ash load into the slave’s ash.
3. Press the
again Soft Key to export another le or Save/load to exit.
