[. . . ] This is a useful way of storing or backing up the contents of your memory presets externally. To recall the memory dump back to the UC-33, play the MIDI track containing the recorded memory dump to the UC-33, making sure that the UC-33 drivers are selected as output for that particular track. The current controller assignments are not affected by a memory dump, or a memory send to the UC-33. Once a memory dump has been sent to the UC-33, you will need to recall a preset to access the new memory settings. Assigning A Device ID To The UC-33 Pressing the "DEV. The default Device ID is 127, which means when a memory dump is performed, that dump can be received by any UC-33, regardless of the Device ID setting. If a device ID is assigned to any number other than 127, the memory dump performed will be specific to UC-33's with the same device ID. If the device ID of a UC-33 differs from the one recorded with the memory dump, the data will be ignored. The device ID is a handy way of differentiating between multiple UC33's. When you press the Device ID buttons, you will see the small 2-digit display on LCD display `id'. You can enter a new device ID using the numeric keypad, or the `+' and `-' buttons. For more information on SysEx messages and device ID, please go to page XXX. Resetting The UC-33 To The Factory Default Setting The UC-33 comes with 33 useful presets stored in it's memory (for complete list, see Appendix H). You can reset the UC-33 back to the factory defaults on power-up by holding down the +/- buttons. Note: Restoring the Factory presets will erase all UC-33 setups stored to memory. 10 Evolution UC-33e 4 MIDI In/Out & MIDI Messages Explained MIDI In & MIDI Out Signal Flow Diagram The MIDI IN & MIDI OUT ports have different uses depending on how you intend to connect and power the UC-33. The diagram below shows the different routing options. About The MIDI In Port The MIDI in plug can be used to interface another MIDI device to your PC, via the USB port. Data received from this device will be transmitted via the UC-33 to the PC. This is achieved using a second USB MIDI out. So, when you select the MIDI devices section of your sequencer you will see two UC-33 USB MIDI Ins. The first of these is used to receive the UC-33 controller data, the second is used to receive data from the other device connected to the UC-33's MIDI IN plug. So, the UC-33 is acting as a MIDI-to- USB interface for the other MIDI device. About The MIDI Out Port The UC-33 can of course also interface with other MIDI devices. when you switch the unit on), all controller data is sent out via the MIDI output as well as the USB out. If you want the MIDI output to act like a traditional USB-to-MIDI interface, just press the two buttons (SELECT and ASSIGN) that activate the MIDI OUT from USB mode. If you are using a host application which can pick up multiple input drivers, you will be able to use the UC-33's MIDI input and the UC-33 surface to record MIDI data and send the whole lot out of the UC-33's MIDI output. Important note:The UC-33 is not a MIDI THRU device and as such, MIDI data received at the UC-33's MIDI IN plug can never be sent directly to the UC-33's MIDI OUT plug. However, if the UC-33 is connected via USB to a computer, data received at the MIDI IN can be transmitted to the MIDI OUT plug, since the data is sent to the computer, and received back from the computer. MIDI OUT FROM USB mode must be engaged for this to occur. Program & Bank Changes Explained The original GM MIDI specification catered for only 128 voices, numbered from 0-127.
