Operation Manual

Editing
46
Write
This command saves the edited program to the PS60’s
internal memory ( “Writing a program (WRITE),”
p. 25).
You must save important programs. An edited
program will be lost if you turn off the power or
select a different program before saving it.
Note: Before you can write a program, you must turn
the memory protect settings off in Global mode.
Name
[space, !...~]
Specify the name of the program. Use the  buttons
to select a character location, and use the  buttons
or the VALUE knob to specify the desired character at
that location. You can enter up to 24 characters.
Cat (Category)
[A.Piano...Synth]
Specify the category of the program you’re saving.
The program you write will be assigned to one of the
timbres (A.PIANO–SYNTH) according to the category
you specify here.
Note: The following restrictions apply when you
change the category and save the program.
If you modify a Strings timbre and save it, the insert
effect will be unavailable.
If you save from a String timbre to another timbre,
the insert effect will be set to 00: No Effect.
If the insert effect 62: Organ V/C or 63: Rotary SP is
assigned to an Organ timbre, saving it to a different
timbre will change the insert effect setting to 00: No
Effect.
To
[A000...D127: name]
Specify the save-destination for the program. The PS60
allows you to save 512 programs.
Use the program’s bank number (e.g., A000) to specify
the save-destination.
Note: We recommend that you save to a initial pro-
gram. When the PS60 is shipped from the factory, D56–
D127 are initial programs. These are indicated as INIT
(Initial). When saving a program, use the “To” field to
specify one of these programs as the save-destination,
and then save it. The program will be assigned to a
timbre, and can be selected.
If you change the save-destination, the index number
within the performance is automatically assigned in
ascending order of the program’s bank number. This
means that if you change the program’s category or
save it in a different number, the program’s index
number might move up or down. If you save your
edited program to a user program that’s located after
the preload programs, the index numbers of the
preloaded programs won’t change.
Note: The bank number is displayed if you press the
CURSOR/VALUE  buttons simultaneously when
the program name of the performance is shown
(p. 18).
