6. Select the bank file you are looking for, and touch Open to
open it. A list of items appears.
7. Select the item you are looking for, and touch Load to con-
firm the load. A dialog box appears, asking you to select
one of the available locations in memory.
In the dialog box above, the Style you select from disk will
be loaded into location 01 of the bank Usr01 in memory.
Any existing Style at the same location will be deleted and
overwritten.
Empty locations are named “- - - “.
8. Select the target location, and touch OK to load the source
file.
War ning : After confirming, the item you are overwriting in
memory will be deleted.
Note: You can save space for loading new data by deleting all
unused PCM Samples from memory. When Sounds or Drum
Kits based on external PCM Samples are deleted, you no lon-
ger need the now unassigned PCM Samples. Use the “Not
assigned to any Multisample/Drumkit” Delete option in the
Sampling mode to delete all the unassigned Samples (see
page 244).
Note: If you are loading a Sound or Drum Kit making use of
external PCM Samples, the Samples are automatically
loaded (unless they are already in memory).
Loading Global data from other Pa-Series
instruments
Global data (Global, Voice Processor, Limiter, EQ, etc.) cannot
be loaded from other Pa-Series instruments.
Loading Pa3X data
You can load Pa3X data exactly as if they were Pa900 data, apart
for the Global data. Sounds and Effects can be a bit different.
Due to the different order in memory, Styles must be reassigned
to SongBook Entries by using the SongBook Editor software
(freely available on www.korg.com).
Loading Pa600 data
You can load Pa600 data exactly as if they were Pa900 data, apart
for the Global data. Due to the different order in memory, Styles
must be reassigned to SongBook Entries by using the SongBook
Editor software (freely available on www.korg.com).
Loading Pa2X/Pa800 data
You can load Pa2X/Pa800 data exactly as if they were Pa900 data,
apart for the Global data. Due to the different order in memory,
Styles must be reassigned to SongBook Entries by using the
SongBook Editor software (freely available on www.korg.com).
It is not possible to load Pa900 data into a Pa2X/Pa800.
Loading Pa1X data
You can load Pa1X data exactly as if they were Pa900 data, apart
for the Global data. Due to the different order in memory, Styles
must be reassigned to SongBook Entries by using the SongBook
Editor software (freely available on www.korg.com).
It is not possible to load Pa900 data into a Pa1X.
Loading Pa500/588 data
You can load Pa500/588 data exactly as if they were Pa900 data,
apart for the Global data. Due to the different order in memory,
Styles must be reassigned to SongBook Entries by using the
SongBook Editor software (freely available on www.korg.com).
It is not possible to load Pa900 data into a Pa500/588.
Loading Pa80/60/50/50SD data
You can load Pa80/60/50/50SD data exactly as if they were Pa900
data, apart for the Global data. The only difference is that the
“SOUND” folder of Pa900 is called “PROGRAM” in the Pa80/
60/50/50SD. Therefore, to load Sounds from Pa80/60/50/50SD
disks, you must accomplish one of the following operations,
either:
• Rename the “PROGRAM” folder “SOUND” (by using a
personal computer) before loading a “.SET” folder; or
• First load the “.SET” folder, then separately load the “.PCG”
file from the “PROGRAM” folder.
Loading i-Series data
Pa900 is compatible with the Styles of the older i-Series instru-
ments. You can load them as if they were ordinary Pa900 data.
1. Copy the old i-Series data into an USB device, or transfer
them to the internal storage memory of the Pa900.
2. Press MEDIA to go to the Media mode. Select the Load
page if needed.
3. While in the Load page, select the device containing the i-
Series data from the Device pop-up menu.
4. If you are reading an i30 file, select the “.SET” folder and
touch the Open button in the display.
5. Select the “.STY” folder.
6. At this point, you can load the whole “.STY” folder, or open
it and select a single Style.
