About SysEx Messages and Device ID
When transmitting SysEx messages, the channel number for an individual control does not
define a transmit channel, but a Device ID. When you press the CHANNEL ASSIGN
button, the CC symbol will not be shown and there will be no “c” in the three-digit display.
Device IDs range between 00–127. In most cases, you should set the Device ID at 127.
At this setting, the SysEx message will be received by all devices.
Note: The Device ID for a SysEx message that is assigned to a controller cannot be changed using the
Device ID buttons. These buttons are used for varying the global Device ID of the Keystation Pro 88.
Non-Volatile Memory
The Keystation Pro 88 uses non-volatile memory that permits you to store your settings
after powering down and restarting. The current Keystation Pro 88 controller and
channel assignments are stored even if you have not saved to a memory location. Also
stored is Drawbar Mode (on/off), DATA LSB and DATA MSB data, Global Channel
setting, Zone settings and the last used memory preset.
Memory Dump
Pressing the Memory Dump buttons (RECALL + STORE) will send out a number of
SysEx data packets that represent the 10 memories you have in your Keystation Pro 88.
This allows you to store the contents of your memory presets externally and can be used
in conjunction with the SysEx Librarian software applications from M-Audio.
