MQ Rename (Library View) MQ_yes MQLT_no MQLib_no

Studio-Put

Purpose:

Tap the Rename button in the Library view to change the name of the selected SysEx.

This command is only active when the name assigned to the SysEx is editable. While the entry dialog will accept up to 255 characters, the number of characters actually stored is determined by the SysEx itself. For example, a Yamaha DX7 or Korg M1 only has space in the SysEx for 10 characters so only the first 10 characters are used. By comparison, a Dave Smith Poly Evolver stores 16 characters.

Some older instruments do not have any space assigned for the storage of a patch name in the SysEx. For these units, Midi Quest allocates 32 characters of name space which it manages for the instrument. In this case, the name information is not sent to the instrument when the SysEx is transmitted.

 

Directions:

To edit the name stored in the SysEx:

1.Tap the SysEx in the Library to select it
2.Tap Rename button on the Library button bar to display a name entry dialog
3.Enter a new name for the patch and press the OK button to store the new name in the SysEx and dismiss the dialog
