4.Insert the floppy disk that should contain the cop- ied data into the floppy drive.

5.Press the field that corresponds to the file type you wish to copy. To copy Styles, for example, press the [Style] field:

6.Press the [ZIP] field below the “From” message (“copy from Zip”).

7.Press the [FDD] field below the “To” message.

8.Press the fields of all Styles you wish to copy. See also step (7) in the right column on page 215. Note: To copy from floppy to Zip, press the [FDD] field below “From” and the [ZIP] field below “To”. To copy from Zip to Zip, press the [ZIP] fields below “From” and “To”.

Copying other file types

You can also copy other file types, either individually or as a bunch (with the [ALL FILES] field):

Styles (Style),

User Program Sets (User Prg),

MIDI Sets (Midi Set),

Single VariPhrases or VariPhrase Sets (see below). With the exception of the fact that you need to select the desired file type using the fields in the left column, the procedure is exactly the same as for copying songs. Please see above for details.

Copying VariPhrases or VariPhrase Sets between disks

Copying VariPhrases or VariPhrase Sets works exactly like copying other file types. There is one thing we’d like to point out, though: after pressing the [ Phrase] field, you need to select whether to copy single VariPhrases (one, several, or all) or VariPhrase Sets. Press the appropriate field:

Rename

The Rename functions allow you to modify the name of a file on the disk you inserted into the VA-76’s disk drive. Please be aware that the selected file cannot be assigned the same name as that of another file on the same disk.

If you try to assign an already existing name to another file on the same disk, the display will respond with a message telling you that this is impossible:

Press the [REPLACE] field to overwrite the other file, or the [EXIT] field if you wish to assign another name to the currently selected file.

1.Press the [FUNCTION MENU] button.

2.Press the [Disk] field.

3.Press the [Utility] field.

4.Press the [Rename] field.

5.Select the drive that contains the file to be renamed by pressing the [ZIP] or [FLOPPY] field.

6.Press the field of the file type you wish to rename (left column):

Styles (Style), User Program Sets (User Prg), MIDI Sets (Midi Set), Single VariPhrases or VariPhrase Sets.

7.Press the field of the file you wish to rename.

Use the [o][k] fields or the [TEMPO/DATA] dial to select other groups of 8 files.
