Overview

About Memory

Tones and other settings are stored in what is referred to as memory.
There are three kind of memory: temporary, rewritable, and non-
rewritable.

Temporary memory
Temporary area
This is the area that holds the data for the tone or performance that
you've selected using the panel buttons.
When you play the JUNO-Di, sound is produced based on data in the
temporary area. When you edit a tone or performance, you do not
directly modify the data in memory; rather, you call up the data into the
temporary area, and edit it there.
Settings in the temporary area will be lost when the power is turned off
or when you select another tone/performance. To keep the settings you
have modified, you must write them into user memory.
Rewritable memory
User memory
User memory is where you normally store the data you need.
To store a tone, rhythm set, or performance setting, you must execute the
corresponding save operation (P. 62).
Favorites you've registered are also saved in user memory.
System memory
System memory stores system parameter settings that determine how
the JUNO-Di functions.
System settings are saved automatically when you exit the system setting
screen.
"MIDI controller mode settings" and "the tones that are selected first by
each tone button" are also saved in system memory.
USB memory
The following settings can be backed up together to USB memory.
• User tones (rhythm sets)
• User performances
• Favorites
• MIDI controller mode settings
• System settings
• The tones that are selected first by each tone button
Non-rewritable memory
Preset memory
Data in Preset memory cannot be rewritten.
However, you can call up settings from preset memory into the
temporary area, modify them and then store the modified data in
rewritable memory.
