Sending Bulk data (back) to the FR-7/FR-5
The FR-7/FR-5 not only sends SysEx data to external
devices (see above), it also receives them. In fact, the
FR-7/FR-5 accepts several kinds of Bulk data:

FR-7/FR-5 accepts several kinds of Bulk data:
• Entire sets that overwrite the contents of all internal
Set memories. If you don’t want to lose the settings
that currently reside in the FR-7/FR-5’s internal
memories, archive them first using the procedure

• One Set: in this case, you can choose where to save
the received Set data.
(1) Connect the FBC-7’s MIDI IN socket to the
sequencer’s/computer’s MIDI OUT socket.
See page 79 for a connection diagram. Obviously, you
also need to connect the FR-7/FR-5 to the FBC-7.

Note: If you are about to transmit a group of 40 Sets (“ALL”) to
the FR-7/FR-5, ask yourself whether you have archived the Set
data that currently reside in the internal memories, or whether
it is OK to overwrite them. Be aware that by proceeding with
an “ALL DATA” file, you replace all internal settings.

initialize it (see “Restoring the factory defaults” on p. 94).
