Creating/Editing Patches (Patch mode)
 
Patch, setup and system settings will be transmitted to an 
external MIDI device. This operation is called bulk dump. Use 
this operation when you want to connect another VC-2 (V-
Synth XT) and play it using the same settings, or to save your 
data on an external MIDI device as a precaution against 
possible loss of sound data or system settings.
To transmit data to an external MIDI device, connect the 
external MIDI device and V-Synth XT as shown in the 
diagram.

Transmitting Data to an External 
MIDI Device (Data Transfer)
Equal Temperament
This tuning divides the octave into 12 equal parts, and is 
the most widely used method of temperament used in 
Western music. The VC-2 employs equal temperament 
when the Scale Tune Switch is set to “OFF.”
Just Temperament (Tonic of C)
Compared with equal temperament, the principle triads 
sound pure in this tuning. However, this effect is 
achieved only in one key, and the triads will become 
ambiguous if you transpose.
Arabian Scale
In this scale, E and B are a quarter note lower and C#, F# 
and G# are a quarter-note higher compared to equal 
temperament. The intervals between G and B, C and E, F 
and G#, Bb and C#, and Eb and F# have a natural third-
the interval between a major third and a minor third. On 
the VC-2, you can use Arabian temperament in the three 
keys of G, C and F.
