Saving The Scene Data; Loading The Scene Data - Vox CONTINENTAL-73 Owner's Manual

13. Saving the scene data

This saves the 16 scenes that have been saved on or written to
the VOX Continental, to a USB storage device (commercially
available) that is connected via the USB A port.
For instance, you can save the scenes that you created at home
to a USB flash drive, and then load the data file into another
VOX Continental at the studio or onstage to recreate your data.
You can create, save and manage your data by project, so that
you can recall the scenes you need at any time.

Continental.
When you save the scene data, a file named
"CONTINENTAL_00.SCE" will be saved in this directory.
The 00 digits will be replaced with the file number you set.

System Settings 13. Saving the scene data
When loading a .SCE file from storage media, only the
.SCE files in the "VOX/CONTINENTAL" directory can
be shown and selected for loading. Note that if you
change the directory, folder hierarchy or filename using
your computer, you will no longer be able to load the file.
The VOX Continental recognizes filenames that look like
"CONTINENTAL_xx.SCE". If you change the file name
or extension on a computer or other device, the VOX
Continental will recognize this as an undefined file, and
will not be able to load it.
