[. . . ] You can get an external MIDI clock to pass through the Rumour or Mangler by changing the switch on the back panel from MIDI "OUT" to MIDI "THRU. " If you do this, however, MIDI events generated by your Rumour or Mangler will not be sent out the MIDI OUT/THRU port. 3-6 Using Your Rumour or Mangler Master Button Tap Tempo LED Tap|Tempo|LED: Blink|Tempo, |Don't|blink Selects whether or not the Tap Tempo LED blinks in time with the system tempo. Change Effect Change|Effect: Load|automatically, |Cue|next|effect Change Effect lets you "cue" effects, which means that you can select the next effect to load before you actually change to that effect. This offers a smooth way to move between effects without scrolling through the list of effects. The default is "Load automatically" (i. e. , cuing is off), which means that when you turn the BANK and PRESET knobs the current effect will change as you turn the knobs. The name of the newly-chosen effect will be displayed on the screen, just as you would expect. If you're in "Load automatically" mode, pressing the LOAD button resets the current preset to its unedited settings. When cuing is on ("Cue next effect"), you use the BANK and PRESET knobs to select an effect to cue. The unit will briefly display the name of the cued effect, then will resume displaying the name of the current effect. Press the LOAD button (which blinks when an effect is cued) to engage the selected effect. Program Change commands received through MIDI are ignored when Change Effect is set to "Cue next effect. " Bypass Mode Bypass|Mode: Effect|&|EQ, |Effect|only Selects whether or not the EQ is bypassed along with the effect when the BYPASS button is pressed. The default is "Effect & EQ, " which means that the EQ is bypassed with the effect. "Effect only" means that the EQ remains active and only the effect is bypassed. You can still bypass the EQ when Bypass Mode is set to "Effect only", however, by using the EQ In/Out parameter (see page 3-12). Show FX Parameters Show|FX|Parameters: Basic, |Extended Controls the number of effect parameters that you can edit. In "Extended" mode, all the algorithm parameters for the selected preset, up to 44 of them, are shown. 3-7 Using Your Rumour or Mangler Master Button SysEx ID SysEx|ID: 0, 1, 2. . .

SysEx|Object|Dump?User1-4|||Load=Dump This offers a way to back up your presets, by dumping them via SysEx to an external MIDI sequencer. Select this master parameter, then use the VALUE knob to select between the following options to specify what is to be dumped: · · · · · User1­4 User1 User2 User3 User4 When you press the LOAD button the unit will dump the presets, displaying a screen like this for a few seconds: Bank(s)|User1-4 have|been|dumped See page 3-19 for more information about backing up and restoring your presets. 3-8 Using Your Rumour or Mangler Master Button Erase User Banks? Erase|User|Banks?User1-4||Load=Erase Use this option to delete the contents of the user banks. You can erase all four banks in one fell swoop, or you can choose to erase individual banks.

The VALUE knob lets you select between the following options to specify what is to be erased: · · · · · User1­4 User1 User2 User3 User4 Press the LOAD button to bring up the confirm dialog: Erase|User1-4!||OK?Tap=OK||||Store=No At this point, press TAP to erase the selected bank(s).
