CARD PERFORMANCE MEMORY
CARD memory performance numbers begin with the letter “C”. The CARD
memory is one or two optional Yamaha MCD64 Memory Card (or pre-pro-
grammed voice cards) plugged into the TG500 DATA 1 and/or DATA 2 slot.
An MCD64 Memory Card holds 128 performance combinations in addition to
256 voices per card. Each card is divided into two banks, each holding two
voice banks of 64 performance combinations each. The card bank to be
accessed (1 or 2) must be selected via the UTILITY mode “4:Card” function
“4-1:Bank” parameter (page 233). Thus, 64 of the 128 performance combina-
tions stored on a card can be accessed at a time.
