WRITING
The
edited data does not automatically rewrite the previous data,
and
therefore
will
be erased
when
a different
Patch
is
selected,
or
the unit
is
turned
off.
To
retain
the edited
data,
take the
following
writing procedure, either into the internal
memory
or onto the
Memory
Card.
*When
using a
Memory
Card
(RAM)
for
the
first
time, be sure to
write the data
in
the interna!
memory
onto
the
Memory
Card
as
shown
in
"Patch Transfer
to the
Memory
Card" on page
65
in a
separate book, "Advanced",
ff
you take the writing procedure without
doing
this,
the Display
shows
"Illegal
Card
"for
a
few
seconds
and
writing
is
not done. This
"Illegal
Card"
message
is
also
shown when
you
are using

Writing
a
new
Patch
inevitably erases
an
existing Patch, so
you
may
wish
to
listen
to
several Patches before deciding
which Patch should
be
sacrificed for the
new
Patch.
You
can do
it
using the
Compare
Button.
