The message “Save Current?” may appear if you
have recorded new audio data, performed editing,
modified mixer settings, or changed the effects’ song
patch (p. 76, p. 117, p. 124, Basic Operation; p. 58) in
the current song. If you want to save the current
mixer settings, song patch, etc., before erasing a
different song, press [ENTER/YES]; if this will not
be necessary, press [EXIT/NO]. If Song Erase is used
without first of all saving the current song, any
changes made since the last time it was saved,
including recorded audio data, edits, mixer settings,
and the song patch selection will be lost. It is
important, therefore, that the appropriate care be
taken.
