Dump (Back-up) Presets & System Settings
The currently loaded effect, your stored Presets and your system settings can be dumped to a
MIDI device or to a computer using the MIDI’s SysEx facility. SysEx dump is a MIDI System
Exclusive Message that can be sent from the H9 and recorded by a MIDI sequencer or
computer. The H9’s Presets and System Settings can then be restored at a later time. This is a
useful way to backup saved settings or to reconfigure the unit as it was on your previous
project.
To Dump Presets &/or System Settings:
1) Press and hold the HOTKNOB button and Right Footswitch simultaneously for
a few seconds to enter System Mode.

a few seconds to exit System Mode.

all Presets are dumped. With ALL selected Presets and System settings are dumped. If SYSTEM
is selected, only System settings are dumped.
