Memory protect
Memory Protect lets you prevent certain types of data from
being overwritten accidentally. There are individual check-
boxes to enable Memory Protect for different parts of the
system, as described below.
For Programs, Combinations, Songs, Set Lists, Drum Kits,
Wave Sequences, and KARMA GEs, Memory Protect
prevents:
• Using the Write command to save edits
• Loading the data type from disk
• Receiving dumps of the data type via MIDI SysEx
When enabled for Songs, Memory Protect also prevents
recording in Sequencer mode.
When enabled for Internal HDD Save, Memory Protect
prevents saving any data to the internal disk.
Before saving edits, loading data, and so on, use the
following procedure to turn the memory protect off.
1. Press the GLOBAL switch to enter Global mode.
2. Go to the Global P0: Basic Setup– Basic page, and
select the Basic page.
Press the Basic tab at the bottom, and then press the Basic
tab above it.
3. Press the “Memory Protect” check box for each type
of data you wish to write or save, so that the box is
unchecked.
Writing Global settings
Any edits in Global pages P0–P3 are temporary until you use
the Write command to store them in the internal memory. If
you don’t use the Write command, your changes will be
gone when you turn off the power.
(Note that Wave Sequences and Drum Kits are stored
separately from the other Global parameters.)
There are two ways to write global settings.
Using the Write page menu command
1. To write global settings (the various settings in Global
P0–P3), press the page menu command Write Global
Setting in Global P0–P3.
The Write Global Setting dialog box will appear.
Note: The same dialog box will also appear if, in each of the
above pages, you hold down the ENTER switch and press
the 0 switch. (See “Shortcuts” on page 6)
2. To execute the Write operation, press the OK button.
To cancel, press the Cancel button.
When you press the OK button, the display will ask “Are
you sure?” Press the OK button once again to write the data.
Using the (SEQUENCER) REC/WRITE switch to
write
1. In the Global P0–P3 pages, press the SEQUENCER
REC/WRITE switch.
A dialog box will appear.
2. To execute the Write operation, press the OK button.
To cancel, press the Cancel button.
Do not turn off the power for at least 10 seconds after
writing the Global data. This allows the system time to
complete the process, which includes saving a backup of
the data to the internal disk.
