Internal memory and Disk Drive

•For more information about the backup time and performance data, please see page 198.
The following data can be saved/loaded:
PERFORMANCE
CURRENT PANEL (The current panel settings)
PANEL MEMORY*
SEQUENCER
COMPOSER* (MEMORY contents)
SOUND MEMORY*
PERFORMANCE PADS (USER memories)

•Instead of using USER MIDI, FAVORITES, HOME PAGE and ALL CUSTOM STYLE as frequently loaded and saved data, it is recom- mended that you save it with other data as Keyboard backup data.
•A * mark indicates that data can be loaded to and from a specific memory (SINGLE LOAD).
•The SEQUENCER contents can be saved in
•Because ALL CUSTOM STYLE uses a lot of memory, the save or load time may be long. In particular, the load procedure takes some time. For separate saving and loading of in- dividual CUSTOM memories, use the CUS- TOM STYLE SAVE or LOAD function. (Refer to page 134.)
•Please use 2HD disks to load/save BACKUP data.
