Loading Bulk Data

Once you’ve saved PortaTone data as described above, you can easily reload the data back to the PortaTone.

The actual procedure may differ depending on your particular equip- ment and software. For example, if you are using the Yamaha MDF3 MIDI Data Filer:

1)Make the appropriate MIDI connections.

2)Insert the appropriate floppy disk (containing the desired data) into the MIDI Data Filer.
