Chapter 8 Saving Tones and Other Data You’ve Created
Chap.8
[F2 (←Prev)]: To move back one character.
[F4 (Insert)]: To insert a space.
[F5 (Delete)]: To delete the character at the cursor position.
The Save what from SIMM? window will appear.
WAV + PARAMETERS: All of the XV-5080’s settings are
saved. In addition, samples loaded to the SIMM are saved in
WAV format.
AIFF + PARAMETERS: All of the XV-5080’s settings are
saved. In addition, samples loaded to the SIMM are saved in
AIFF format.
PARAMETERS ONLY: All of the XV-5080’s settings other
than those for sample wave data loaded to the SIMM are
saved.
* When saving with “PARAMETERS ONLY” selected, the
wave data itself is not saved. After first performing a save
using “WAV + PARAMETERS” or “AIFF +
PARAMETERS,” which save the waveforms as well, you can
save time during tone editing or other operations on the XV-
5080 by thereafter carrying out saves (if saving to the same
media) using the “PARAMETERS ONLY” option.
If you later load data from a CD-ROM or other source, you
will need to save the waveforms themselves using the “WAV
+ PARAMETERS” or “AIFF + PARAMETERS” option.
7. When you are finished making settings, press [F5 (Full)]
or [F6 (Quick)].
The save is executed.
[F5 (Full)]: All samples loaded into SIMM will be saved. The
saved data will overwrite all samples in the storage device.
[F6 (Quick)]: Only the changes relative to the contents of the
storage device will be saved. The samples in the folder on the
external storage device (e.g., Zip) will be compared (by name
and size) with the samples loaded into the SIMM memory of
the XV-5080, and only the newly added samples or replaced
samples will be saved. If samples not loaded into the SIMM
memory are found in the folder on the save destination
external device, those samples will be deleted from the
storage device.
* To cancel the operation, press [EXIT].
8. Press [DISK] to return to the previous page.
Free Area
SIMM
This displays the amount of free space in the SIMM.
Disk
This displays the free disk space remaining on the connected
SCSI device.
Organizing a Zip Disk

<Renaming a File/Folder (RENAME)>

This is exactly the same as with memory cards. Refer to
“Organizing the Contents of Memory Cards” (p. 197).

<Deleting a File/Folder (Delete)>

This is exactly the same as with memory cards. Refer to
“Organizing the Contents of Memory Cards” (p. 197).

<Copying/Moving a File/Folder (Cp/

Move)>

This is exactly the same as with memory cards. Refer to
“Organizing the Contents of Memory Cards” (p. 197).
Creating a Folder
You can create folders when saving data to Zip drives or
other similar external SCSI devices.
Saving all of the XV-5080's settings using a separate
folder for the contents of each sample allows you to
efficiently manage Patches and other such data that use
samples contained in the SIMM.
Pressing [F2 (New)] takes you to the Create New Folder
window.

Here, after the name is applied, pressing [F6 (OK)]
creates the folder.
For instructions on supplying a name, refer to Step 9 of
<Renaming a File/Folder (RENAME)> (p. 201).
