Basic Operation

Using Data Storage Functions

Recalling an Instrument State

Using this procedure, you will learn how to recall instrument settings saved to an instrument state register.

1.Press Preset.

2.Press the Recall hardkey.

Notice that the Select Seq softkey shows sequence 1. (This is the last sequence that you used.)

3.Press RECALL Reg.

The register to be recalled in sequence 1 becomes the active function. Press the up arrow key once to select register 1. Your stored instrument state settings should have been recalled.

Deleting Registers and Sequences

These procedures describe how to delete registers and sequences saved to an instrument state register.

Deleting a Specific Register within a Sequence

1.Press Preset.

2.Press the Recall or Save hardkey.

Notice that the Select Seq softkey shows the last sequence that you used.

3.Press Select Seq and enter the sequence number containing the register you want to delete.

4.Press Select Reg and enter the register number you want to delete.

Notice that the Delete Seq[n] Reg[nn] should be loaded with the sequence and register you want to delete.

5.Press Delete Seq[n] Reg[nn]. This deletes the chosen register.
