Erasing a Sample

You can delete a specific sample or all samples from the main memory. This is useful for example to remove all preprogrammed samples or to remove unwanted samples in order to free up memory.

NOTE

Also when all samples are erased, the preprogrammed samples of the ST-224 can be restored by initializing the unit.

Take care that you do not erase a sample you wish to keep. If a HINT sample has not been transferred to the internal backup memory or

an external data card, an erased sample cannot be restored.

samples do not change.

Also when all samples are erased, the preprogrammed samples of the ST-224 can be restored by initializing the unit.
