Chapter 6. Using Memory Cards
Never turn off the power while the dots are blinking.
This may result in damage to the memory card and
corruption of data in the internal memory.
Loading Sample from a
Memory Card (Sample Load)
You can load the collected data for one set (of sixteen
samples) saved to a memory card, replacing the data in the
SP-303's internal memory (Sample Banks A and B). This
operation is called Sample Load.
When this operation is performed, the internal data of
the SP-303 will be overwritten. Be sure to make a backup
of important data before you do this.

1. Confirm that [PATTERN SELECT] is not lit.
If [PATTERN SELECT] is lit, press it so that the button's
light goes out.
* Take care to note that if [PATTERN SELECT] is lit, the SP-
303 will then proceed with the Pattern Load operation.
2. Hold down [CANCEL] and press either BANK [A] or
[B].
BANK [A] and [B] light up, and the pads corresponding
to the area numbers containing data begin to blink.
* If there are no samples saved to the memory card, then "EMP"
appears in the display, and you cannot proceed further with
the operation.
3. Press a pad to specify the card area that you wish to
load into internal memory.
Pressed pads remain lit, and [REC] blinks.
* If you decide to cancel the Load operation, press [CANCEL].
4. Press [REC].
[REC] lights up, and the dots in the display blink.

During the loading process, all Pads from [1] through [8]
will at first light up, then go out one by one (starting
with [1]), indicating the progress of the load.
The loading is completed when the dots stop blinking
and remain off.
* Note that the loading process may take up to approximately
one minute to complete.
Never turn off the power while the dots are blinking.
This may result in damage to the memory card and
corruption of data in the internal memory.
Saving Patterns to Memory
Cards (Pattern Save)
You can save sixteen patterns from the SP-303's internal
memory (Banks A and B) as one set to the backup area of a
memory card.
This operation is called Pattern Save.
Data that has been saved in this way cannot be played back
until it is once again loaded into the SP-303.

1. Press [PATTERN SELECT], and confirm that the
button has lit.
* If already lit, there is no need to press the button.
* Take care to note that if [PATTERN SELECT] is not lit, the
SP-303 will then proceed with the Sample Save operation.
2. Hold down [CANCEL] and press either BANK [C] or [D].
BANK [C] and [D] light up, and the pads corresponding
to blank portions of the backup area begin to blink.
3. Press a pad to specify the number of the area into
which you wish to save the data.
Pressed pads remain lit, and the other pad lights go out.
* You can select an area number by pressing a pad that is not
blinking (excluding a pad [8]). Take care to note here that any
data already saved to that area number is overwritten if you
continue with the current data to saving.
