Saving your Song
This section explains how to save your song on the internal
disk.
To ensure that your data will be reproduced perfectly, we
recommend that you use Save All to save your song. This
saves your sounds, samples, and Song at the same time, with
names to tie them together:
• Programs, Combinations, global settings, Drum Kits,
Wave Sequences, user Drum Track patterns, and Set
Lists
• Songs, including any audio data
• Sampling Mode Multisamples and samples
• Links to loaded EXs and User Sample Bank data
Note: WAVE files created by recording audio tracks will be
moved to a different directory. For details, see “How audio
data is stored on the disk” on page 104.
When you turn off the power, the Sequencer mode
settings, recorded songs, and user patterns will be lost.
User drum patterns will be retained, however.
To save your data, proceed as follows.
1. Make sure that the media is able to save data.
