Loading a .PCG file from the floppy disk included with a separately sold EXB-PCM series option

When loading EXB-PCM series programs and combi- nations, use the following procedure. When doing so, you will specify the loading destination bank (C, D) in step 5.

To load the data into bank C, select “C_BANK.PCG.” To load the data into bank D, select “D_BANK.PCG.”

When you load “C_BANK.PCG,” the programs and combinations of banks A, B, and C, all drum kits, all user arpeggio patterns, and global setting data will be loaded into the internal memory area of the TRITON, and any prior data will be overwritten.

When you load “D_BANK.PCG,” the programs and combinations of banks A, B, and D, all drum kits, all user arpeggio patterns, and global setting data will be loaded into the internal memory area of the TRITON, and any prior data will be overwritten.

If you wish to keep the data that is in the internal memory area, use “Save All” or “Save PCG” to save it before loading other data.

Saving data

For the procedure of saving data to a floppy disk or to external SCSI media, refer to “Saving on external media” (☞p.40).

Types of data that can be saved

The following types of data can be saved on external media (floppy disk etc.). If the separately sold EXB- SCSI option is installed, data can also be saved on high-capacity media such as a hard disk.

•.PCG files

Programs, combinations, global settings, drum kits, user arpeggio patterns (the data specified by the check boxes when saving will be saved).

•.SNG files

Songs and cue lists

•.KSC files

Script file (KSC files) listing the multisamples and samples created in Sampling mode, with multisam- ples (KMP files) and samples (KSF files)

•Standard MIDI files (SMF)

Sequencer mode songs can be saved as SMF data.

•System exclusive data

System exclusive data received by the TRITON from an external MIDI device (the TRITON can be used as a data filer).

For the icons associated with each file, refer to the lower diagram on the preceding page.

Formatting media

The TRITON can format a floppy disk or external SCSI media.

Newly purchased media or media that has been used by another device cannot be used as it is. Such media must be formatted before using it on the TRITON for the first time.

For the formatting procedure, refer to p.143 in the Parameter Guide.

In the case of a floppy disk, the formatting operation can be performed on a MS-DOS compatible computer. In the case of SCSI media, you must use the TRITON to format the media.

This format cannot be executed for media that is not 512 bytes/block (such as 640 MB MO disks etc.).
