By connecting the JUNO-G with your computer via a USB cable, you
can transfer files from Internal user area or a memory card to and
from the hard disk or other media of your computer, in order to back
up your data.
You can use software on your computer to edit wave data you’ve
created on the JUNO-G. Conversely, wave data that you’ve created
on your computer can be used on the JUNO-G.
In this way, USB Storage mode lets you transfer audio files to or
from a connected computer.
Never disconnect the USB cable or turn off the power if USB
Storage mode is selected.
