IMPORTANT – ENABLING SAVE
By now you will probably have read the Getting Starting Guide shipped with your
Circuit Mono Station, so will be aware that Session Saving is disabled, but in case you
haven’t, we’re repeating it here:
The Save function is deliberately disabled before shipping from the factory to prevent
accidental erasure of the demo Sessions. The Save button
14
will initially be unlit,
and before you can save any Sessions of your own, you will need to unlock the Save
function. To do this, hold down the Shift
15
and Save buttons together while powering
Circuit Mono Station on. Save will now be illuminated blue.
You can choose to disable Save in the same way – hold down Shift and Save while
powering Circuit Mono Station on, and the Save button will no longer be illuminated,
indicating that the Save function is now disabled.
Note also that the Clear Session function is also disabled when Save is disabled.
You don’t need to be in Sessions View to save a Session you’ve been working on. If you press
Save
14
, the button ashes white; if you press it a second time, it blinks green rapidly for a
second or so to conrm the save process. However, in this case, your work will be saved in the
last selected Session memory, which will most likely be the one that held an earlier version; the
earlier version will be overwritten.
To save your work in a different Session memory (leaving the original version unchanged),
enter Sessions View. Press Save; both Save and the pad for the currently selected Session will
ash white. Press a different memory pad: all the other pads will go dark, and the selected pad
will blink green rapidly for a second or so to conrm the save process.
You can also assign a different colour to any of the pads in Session View – this can be a great
help in live performance. You choose the colour as part of the Save procedure described
above. After pressing Save for the rst time, the Oct J and Oct K buttons
12
will light in the
current colour of the pad for the currently selected Session: if you’ve not already changed the
colour, they will be blue. You can now scroll through a palette of 14 colours by pressing the
Oct J and Oct K buttons. When you see the colour you want, press Save for the second time
to complete the Save process, with green ashes as described above. Note that because you
always save to the currently selected Session memory, and the pad for that is always white,
you won’t immediately see the new colour, but you will do so as soon as you select a different
Session.
