ALESIS M20 REFERENCE MANUAL 1.06 A2-1
APPENDIX 2
USING THE M20 DATA
SECTION OF TAPE
GENERAL DATA SECTION CONVENTION ON THE M20
The M20 saves setup data to an ADAT tape’s data section using the Alesis BRC Table of
Contents (TOC) as a template. In other words, the M20 will only save and recall a TOC
for those locate points and parameters that have a BRC equivalent. To save and recall
the entire M20 locate point and parameter set, perform a system exclusive MIDI dump
(see M20 manual sections 12.4 and 12.5).
M20 LOCATE POINTS AND SMPTE OFFSETS
The M20 has 100 locate points and 1 SMPTE offset value. With a CADI, the M20 can
recall 10 Setups. Each Setup has a dedicated SMPTE offset value, bringing the total
number of available SMPTE offsets to 10. The M20’s locate points are independent of
the Setups, so the same 100 locate points are available to each Setup.
