Creating a Song with the Multi mode
Storing/saving the created Multi
Two steps are necessary in order to store (save) your Multi—storing the edited Multi to internal memory and saving the
stored Multis to a USB storage device.
Multi Play/
Multi Edit
Storing edited Multis individually
When you turn off the power to the instrument, User Multis saved in the Multi Store mode are not erased. As such it is not
necessary to save the data to USB storage device; however, you may want to save it for backup or organizational purposes,
using the Save operation.
Storing the edited Multi as a User
Multi to internal memory
[MULTI/SEQ PLAY] (select Multi mode)
The operation is the same as in the Performance mode
(page 56).
Saving the edited Multis to a USB
storage device
[FILE] [F2] SAVE
The basic operation is the same as in the Voice mode
(page 51). However, you must select the file type "All" as in
the Performance mode. When Type is set to "All," execute
the Save operation to save all the created data, including
the Multis as well as the Voices assigned to them, as a
single file (extension: S7A).
Loading Multi data from the USB
storage device
[FILE] [F3] LOAD
These instructions describe how to recall the "All" file data
saved to the USB storage device, using the Load operation
to transfer the data to the instrument. An "All" file
(extension: S7A) contains all Multis.
Press the [FILE] button to enter the File mode.

CAUTION
When Type (file type) is set to "All" and the Load operation is executed,
all data that can be created on the instrument will be loaded. This
means that any existing data in User memory will automatically be
overwritten and lost. Make sure to save any important data to a USB
storage device before performing the Load operations, especially when
Type is set to "All."

While the data is being saved/loaded, make sure to follow these
precautions:
* Do not remove or eject the media from the USB storage device.
* Do not unplug or disconnect the USB storage device.
