For details on these controllers, see “Performing with 
KARMA” on page 196.
3. After you’ve edited a program, you can restore the 
program to the original state in which it was 
saved.
When you press the UTILITY COMPARE switch 
(the LED will light), the saved settings for that 
program will be recalled. Press the COMPARE 
switch once again to return to the edited settings 
(the LED will go dark).
You can also hold down the UTILITY RESET 
CONTROLS switch and operate the vector joystick, 
a control surface slider or knob, or CONTROL 
ASSIGN switch to recall the saved settings. You can 
also do the same for KARMA. For more 
information, see “Resetting controls to their saved 
values” on page 47.
We hope you enjoyed your quick introduction to the 
OASYS. There are so many programs and 
combinations that you probably didn’t actually finish 
playing them all, so why not take a break from playing, 
and take some time to listen to the OASYS’ demo 
songs.
Listening to the demo songs
Loading the demo song data in Disk mode
1. Press the MODE DISK switch (the LED will light) 
to enter Disk mode.
2. Access the Disk– Load page. Press the File tab and 
then the Load tab.
3. Use “Drive Select” to select HDD.
The contents of the hard disk will appear.
4. Choose the Preload.SNG file.
This file contains demo song data.
PRELOAD.SNG is located in the following 
directory.
FACTORY → PRELOAD.SNG
Press the Open button to move to a lower directory, 
and press the Up button to move to the directory 
above the currently-displayed one.
5. Press the Load button to open the dialog box.
6. Select the “Load PRELOAD.PCG too” and “Load 
PRELOAD.KSC too” check boxes so that the .PCG 
file and .KSC file will be loaded along with the 
.SNG file.
PRELOAD.PCG contains preloaded data for 
programs, combinations, drum kits, and wave 
sequences.
PRELOAD.KSC contains sample data for the 
programs used by the demonstration songs.
Set the “Select .SNG Allocation” and “Select .KSC 
Allocation” option buttons to Clear. With the Clear 
setting, all currently loaded RAM multisamples and 
samples will be erased, and the song data will be 
loaded in the same configuration as when it was 
saved. (In contrast, the Append setting will preserve 
any existing data, and load the songs following the 
existing data.)
If you’ve edited any of the above data already, or 
created new data, executing this Load operation 
will overwrite and erase this data. If there’s any 
data you need to keep, save it on the internal hard 
disk or a USB storage media before you proceed.
7. Press the OK button to execute the Load operation.
