About System Backup

Important information about the 9000Pro’s current settings, such as the selected style number, the Split Point setting, the fingering mode, and MIDI-related set- tings, can be retained in the Flash ROM. To do this, press the quarter note icon

button ( ) from the main display and follow the on-screen instructions. For a complete list of System Backup parameters, refer to page 214.

To return the System Backup parameters to the original factory settings, simultaneously hold down the [DEMO] button and turn on the power.

Memory Structure

Keep in mind the following points when using the memory devices.

Song files can be played back without loading the data to Flash ROM or inter- nal memory (RAM).

Style files can be played back from Flash ROM, after loading the data from disk to Flash ROM. They can also be played directly from disk by using the Disk Direct function (page 25).

For saving/loading any data other than style data between disk and Flash ROM, use the Disk/SCSI function (page 150). Saving/loading style data is done with the Style Manager functions (page 74).

One Touch Setting data can be saved/ loaded with the Flash style; however, it cannot be saved/loaded separately by itself.

Music Database data can be loaded with the Disk Style data. Actually, the One Touch Setting data programmed with the Disk Style data is loaded as the Music Database. The Music Database data cannot be saved/loaded separately by itself.

About the Style Data

This diagram illustrates the relationship among the style data stored to different types of memory. In addition to normal memory provisions, the 9000Pro features special Flash ROM memory. Unlike conventional ROM, Flash ROM can be overwritten — allowing you to store your own original data. A number of pre-programmed styles have been loaded to the Flash ROM; these are referred to below as “Flash styles.”

Storing your original style data to Flash ROM erases the fac- tory programmed Flash style data (at the corresponding number locations). If you've deleted the factory-set data, you can use the Restore func- tion (page 154) to load a copy of it from the included disks (page 6).

Preset styles are stored to conventional ROM. These are permanent and cannot be overwritten. However, you can use these as a basis for creating your own original styles with the Style Creator (page 126). Use the Style Manager functions (page 74) to backup and organize your original style data.

Playing the disk styles can be done in two ways: 1) loading the style data to Flash ROM and playing it back as a Flash style, or 2) playing it back directly from disk, with the Disk Direct function (page 25).
