Saving the song

After recording, the song is stored into a temporary, non-per- manent memory. To preserve it from deletion when turning the instrument off or choosing a different song, you must save it into the User Song album. There are several ways to do it.

By choosing the Save Song command

You can select the Save Song command at any moment. The Save Song page also allows you to assign or modify the name of the song, and save all the changes.

1.After having pressed the EDIT button while in Song Play

mode, use the SCROLL button to go to the Save Song edit page:

Save Song	7
Untitled	Save?

3.Press the +/YES button to save the song into the User Song album, or the -/NO button to return to the Song Play mode, without saving the song. As an alternative, you can press EXIT to exit without saving, or to continue recording the current song.

4.The “Are you sure?” message appears. Press +/YES to con- firm, -/NO to cancel and exit.

At the end, the Song Play display will appear again, and you will be able to choose a different song for playing.

By choosing to record a new song

You can press the SONG + RECORD button combination to start recording a new song. If an unsaved song is still in mem- ory, the Song Modified page will appear (see below).

to change it. Press the SCROLL

Note: The first character is a blank space. When saving, it will be automatically removed if added to the beginning or end of the name.

You can give the song a long name (as explained below). If it will not fit the display, it will scroll entirely when it is selected. When saved, the “.MID” extension will be auto- matically added to the file name.

When you reach the end of the name, a flashing asterisk

(*) appears:

tons to choose a new character, or press SCROLL to moves the cursor to the Save command:
