Save MIDI Set

[FUNCTION MENU][Disk] field[Save] field[Midi Set] field

It is most unlikely that you will be able to save a Vari- Phrase Set (16 phrases!) to floppy disk. Using a Zip disk is therefore a much better idea. If not all data can be saved to the selected disk, the display responds with:

This function allows you to save all 8 MIDI Sets as a set. The Size value indicates the capacity required to save the “MIDI Set-Set” to disk, while Free Disk tells you something about the remaining disk capacity. See also “Saving MIDI Sets to disk” on page 207.

Save Phrase

[FUNCTION MENU][Disk] field[Save] field[ Phrase] field

There are two options on this page: you can either save the currently selected User phrase, or the contents of all 16 phrases in the VariPhrase User memory. Press the field that corresponds to the desired option. See page 76 for how to save a single phrase to disk.

1.To save a VariPhrase Set, press the [Phrase Set] field.

To save the Set under the default name (“PHRASE S_XX”) you can [EXECUTE] right away.

2.Insert a disk into the appropriate drive and select that drive using the [FLOPPY] or [ZIP] field.

If this message is displayed, none of your User phrases have been saved to disk (and if they had, they would be unreadable). Do not switch off the VA-76 at this point: eject the disk, and insert another one. If it is not formatted, you will be given the opportunity to do so.

Note: A single VariPhrase file or a VariPhrase Set cannot be divided over several floppy disks.

3.Press the [Name] field.

4.Enter the name of your VariPhrase Set (8 charac- ters). See page 68 for details.

5.Press [EXECUTE] to confirm your settings and save the data to disk.
