Editing all 128 of the G50's programs can involve a fair
amount of time and effort. The MIDI Bulk Dump feature
makes it possible to save single programs or all programs
to an external MIDI data recorder such as the Yamaha
MDF2 or a sequencer with MIDI data recorder capability.
Another use for this feature is to create different sets of
programs for different applications. You can create a
library of G50 programs to cover all your needs.

MIDI Bulk Dump Reception
Program data can be reloaded from an external storage
device while the G50 is in the PLAY mode. The data is
loaded automatically when received from the external
storage device.
A single program will be loaded into the currently
selected G50 program number, replacing the previous
program. If all programs are received, all 128 of the
G50's programs will be replaced.
"rEc" will appear on the G50 display during MIDI bulk
dump reception, then "don" will appear when the data has
been successfully received. If an error is encountered
during reception, "MErr" will appear on the display and
the receive operaytion will be aborted. The "don" or
"MErr" message will disappear when any mode button is
pressed.
