Basic Operation
Handling files such as deleting song files ...
[FILE/SONG SETTING]
File screens (accessed via the [FILE/SONG SETTING] button) enables you to handle files (e.g., save, delete and rename
recorded songs), copy and format medias and change characters on the screen. To connect to a USB storage device, be
sure to read the section “Precautions when using the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal” on page 122.
The following parameters are provided for these operations:
Clavinova memory
The Clavinova has the following three types of memory:
Current memory :
This is a temporary memory area where you can temporarily place and edit the
currently-selected song before playback or recording.
Preset song memory:
This read-only memory area saves 50 piano preset songs.
Storage memory:
This memory area enables you to save recorded songs or song data loaded from
USB storage device.
When you select a song in the song select screen, it is loaded from Preset song memory,
Storage memory, or USB storage device, into Current memory.
You will use Current memory to play back and record songs. When you turn off the
power to the Clavinova, songs saved in Preset song memory and Storage memory are not
erased. On the other hand, songs in Current memory are lost. However, recorded songs
are automatically saved to Storage memory from Current memory.
In this manual, a song located in a song recorded in Current memory, is referred to as a
“Current song,” a song in Storage memor y is a “Memory song,” and a song on a USB
storage device is an “External song.”
File
A file contains a group of data. On
the Clavinova, a song file includes
song data and a song number.
Memory
Memory is a location inside the
Clavinova in which you can save
and edit data.
