Chapter 7 Creating Music Styles

Saving a User Style

You can save the User Styles you create to floppy disks.

With the KR-7, you can save Styles to the user memory. When saved to the user memory, User Styles are not deleted when the power is turned off. You can also select Styles saved to the user memory by pressing the Music Style [User] button.

You can save up to 99 User Styles in user memory.

What is the User Memory? (KR-7)

The user memory is the area within the instrument where User Styles created with the KR-7, sets of User Programs, and other such data are stored.

You can also copy User Styles and sets of User Programs saved on floppy disks.

Data saved to the user memory is not deleted, even when the KR’s power is turned off.

When you want to clear all of the content saved to the user memory and restore the settings to the factory settings on the KR-7, refer to “Formatting the User Memory (KR-7)” (p. 156).

When you touch the icon for the character to be input, the character appears at the cursor position.

For example, touching the <ABC> icon in succession cycles you through the available choices in that character group (A→ B→ C→ A...).

Each touch of <A-a-0-!> cycles the type of characters through “English (upper case),” “English (lower case),” “numerals,” “symbols,” then back to “English (upper case).”

When you touch <Del>, the character at the cursor position is deleted.
