However, there are a few things you should check before you transmitsystem exclusive data to the microQ:• Make sure none of the microQ’s programs is in Edit mode. The edit buffers might becleared or overridden depending on the type of dump that is sent to the microQ.• Check out the parameter SysEx ID. Data transmission will only be executed successfully ifif the sender and receiver settings match.As soon as the dump from the sending device is activated, the microQ will receive data and storethese in its memory.If a single Sound, Multi, Drum Map or Arrangement dump is received, it is temporarily stored in itsrespective edit buffer. If you want to keep such edits, you have to store them. Otherwise they arewhen you switch the microQ off. The microQ is able to receive a sound dump from the Waldorf Q series via MIDI. According tothat please refer to the chapter „System Exclusive Data Transmission“ in the Q manual.
