Saving Data

Loading a File

Use the procedures in this section when you want to load data from external storage media into the keyboard’s user area.

IMPORTANT!

•Note the following important points whenever using the SMF Player Mode to play back data saved with the above procedure.

*SD Memory Card

To perform the procedure below, you must have an SD memory card to which SMF data has been copied from a computer. Insert an SD memory card that you have formatted on the keyboard into the card slot of your computer, and copy the SMF data you want to load into the directory named “MUSICDAT”. Note that you will not be able to load the data if it is not located inside the “MUSICDAT” directory. If you create a sub- directory inside of the “MUSICDAT” directory, the keyboard will not be able to load any data inside the sub-directory.

*Floppy Diskette (WK-3800 only)

This keyboard is able to see only files that are in the top (root) directory of the floppy diskette. It will not be able to see any files that are located in a subdirectory.

PREPARATION

•SD Memory Card

•Insert the SD memory card that contains the data you want to load into the keyboard’s card slot.

•Floppy Diskette (WK-3800 Only)

•Insert the floppy diskette that contains the data you want to load into the keyboard’s floppy disk drive.

NOTE

•Depending on the type and the amount of data involved and type of media you are using (SD memory card or floppy diskette*), a data save or load operation can take anywhere from a few minutes to more than 30 minutes to complete. The message “Pls Wait” will remain on the display to indicate that a data save or load operation is being performed.

*WK-3800 only

IMPORTANT!

•Never try to perform any operation while “Pls Wait” is displayed. Performing any operation can cause Flash memory, or memory card or floppy diskette data to be deleted, and damage the keyboard’s memory and cause it to malfunction.
