 Hello Paul,

Thanks for your answer, but logical, if I can send complete factory patches and Polaris recieved it, sysex comes well into polaris. I checked again, and I have configurated in midi channels 1, and on second Ros on 7 ( not mutlichanel used ). I think the best solution is send and recieve individual patche and complete patches via audio ( audio out and pedal in ).

But I thinking that I do bad anything, because not logic that can recievesysex of complete patches ( not individual ) and send individual only but not complete .....I hope any user can help me.... ;-)

Can you help me on how can I use it in multi mode?


Best,


Jordi

If it isn't working for you, you should check the MIDI Basic Channel
parameter, and make sure it is set to 1. (That's LOWER FUNCTION, B, make
sure 1 is on and 2-6 are off.) In the Polaris MIDI format, even Sysex has
a channel number byte, and will be ignored if it doesn't match the Basic
Channel number. (The manual says that the unit powers up in Omni Mode,
ignoring channel numbers, but I believe this is false.)
