Alesis QS7, QS8 manual Store a Program or MIX

Chapter 4: Overview

The [STORE] button selects Store mode. Store mode has 7 pages which you can scroll through by using the [ PAGE] and [PAGE] buttons. Each page in Store mode provides a different type of storage, copy or data transfer function. When storing edited Mixes or Programs into the User Bank or a RAM Card Bank, you will use the first page of Store mode (for more information about the other pages of Store mode, see Chapter 9). If you press [STORE], the display will look something like this:

SavePrg? (STORE)

			to USER 127
	Each edit mode type requires its own store operation. For example, if while making a
	new Mix you also make changes within one of the Programs (such as lowering the
	filter level), you must use the Store command separately (from Mix Edit, and
	Program Edit or Effect Edit) in order to save your work. Note: When using the Store
	command from Effect Edit Mode, the associated Program is stored. This is because
	Effects are stored within their respective Programs.
	If you select a different Mix while in Mix Edit mode, or a different Program in Program
	Edit mode, you will lose all changes you have made, unless you perform a store first.
J	You can only store Mixes and Programs into their respective User banks. The Preset
	banks are permanently stored in ROM and cannot be saved over.
	STORE A PROGRAM OR MIX
	¿	While in either Program Mode or Mix mode, after making your edits press the
		[STORE] button.
	¡	Optional: Select the memory Bank in which you want to store the Program or Mix
		into using the [s VALUE] and [VALUE t] buttons.
		If no RAM Card is inserted, you will only be able to select the User Bank.
	¬	Use the [0] – [9] and [00] – [120] to select the Program/Mix location (00 – 127) in
		which you want to store the Program or Mix into.
	√	Press [STORE] again to complete the operation.
		Or, Press any other button to cancel out of the Store operation without storing.
J	Storing a Mix only stores the Mix parameters, not the individual Programs or Effect
	Patch used in the Mix. If you have edited any of the Programs in the Mix or the

Effects Patch, you must store them separately.
