•To store WAV files or AIFF files on a data card for the ST-224, a

NOTE computer capable of reading and writing MS- DOS format data cards is required.

•If "--" is shown in place of XX, the data card does not contain any of the files described above.

•When wishing to recall a preset sound, store the contents of the main memory and backup memory to a data card as required, and then reset the ST-224 to the factory default condition

( ➔ p. 69). By storing the present sounds on a data card, recalling of specific waveform data becomes possible. This is a handy feature.

STEP 3 Use the [-] [+] keys to select the file number (1 - 99).

•If "int" or "CArdXX" was selected in step 2 Proceed to step 4.

•If "FILEXX" or "AIFFXX" was selected in step 2 Proceed to step 5.

If "int" or "CArdXX" was selected in step 2, press the [LOAD] key and use the [BANK 1] -

[BANK 3] keys and pads 1 - 8 to select the load source bank number and pad number.

 

 

If "CArdXX" was selected in step 2, the bank number and pad number for the desired data within the bulk data must be specified before proceeding to step 5. When the [LOAD] key is pressed, the bank number (1 - 3) and pad number (1 - 8) for the source appear on the display. Specify the desired numbers here.
