Recently, I purchased roland JV-2080 Synth Module to hold more Expansion Cards. (My XP-80 holds only 4) My problem, however, is that all my User, Performance, Patch, Rhythm, and System data is stored on my XP-80 and not the JV-2080. I cannot start from scratch with a default system, so, how can I transfer my data. Or, is it even possible? On a more technical note, can a "bulk dump" via MIDI actualy make an exact replica of my XP-80 settings on the JV-2080? Thanks for the help.
 
Since they are both the same generation from the same manufacturer it should be possible.

The data within a sysex dump that address one synth and one synth only is called a 'header'. With a program like Midi-ox that allows you to edit sysex you can substitute the JV-2080's header data for the XP-80's and the rest of the setup data should be common to both instruments. Sysex hex codes should be in the manual - otherwise dump the data to the screen and you may be able to simply cut and paste.
