The edit buffers might be cleared oroverridden depending on the type of dump that is sent to the Q.• Check out the parameter SysEx ID. Data transmission will only be executed successfullyif the sender and receiver setting coincide.After activating the dump command at the sender device, the Q will receive data and store these in itsmemory.If a single Sound, Multi, Drum Map, Pattern or Arrangement dump is received, they are temporarilystored in the respective edit buffers. If you want to keep these edits, you have to store them.Otherwise they are lost when you switch the Q off.Receiving sound dumps from the Waldorf microQThe Q is able to receive a sound dump from the microQ via MIDI.
