Error messages

Write Protect

While saving a song, you are trying to write over a write-pro- tected file. The song has been previously copied from a PC, and it had the write-protect attribute turned on while on the computer’s disk. Change name to the song before repeating the save operation.

Record Mode

Not Allowed

You are trying to access recording on a protected song (i.e., all the songs contained in albums different than UserSong). This is not possible.

Out of Memoy

The song is too long, and the memory has been filled out. When the maximum memory capability has been reached, re- cording is automatically stopped. Press EXIT to close this mes- sage.

Song Modified

Save?

A new or modified song exists in memory, and has not yet been saved. Press +/YES to save it, or -NO to cancel and aban- don all changes. In this latter case, the song in memory will be lost.

Maximum song length reached

A song can’t exceed 999 measures in length. When you reach that limit, the recorder is automatically stopped. Please note that recording can end earlier, if there is not enough memory for all 999 measures to be recorded.

Loading Song

Error

Wait please

Memory Full

The internal storage memory (the one preserved when turning the instrument off, and seen when connecting the C-720 via USB) is full, so you cannot save the song.

Invalid Name

Your song’s name is still blank (i.e., no characters were insert- ed, or all characters were deleted). Assign a name to the song, and try saving again.

The song already exists in the internal storage memory. If you press +/YES the older version is deleted and replaced by the new one. If you press -/NO or EXIT saving is canceled, and the older version is preserved.
