Reset
Press the Reset soft button if you want to return your PC3's memory to the state it was in when
you bought it.
CAUTION: Resetting the PC3 system causes ALL parameters to be restored to default values and ALL
user objects to be erased. The PC3 will ask you if you want to delete everything (meaning all RAM
objects), and a pair of Yes/No soft buttons will appear. Press No if you want to keep any objects you have
saved. Press Yes, and everything stored in RAM will be erased. After a few seconds, the PC3 will return
to the Program mode page.
Loader
Pressing the Loader soft button calls up the Boot Loader. For details on the Boot Loader, see
Appendix B in The PC3 Musician's Guide.
About
Pressing the About soft button calls up the general info page for the PC3. On this page is the
version of the installed OS and factory object. Press any key to leave this page.
Save
Pressing the Save soft button saves the Master Table object, which saves many important PC3
settings as defaults. Since the Master Table is always saved when exiting Master Mode (or MIDI
mode,) the Save soft button is only needed in order to save when Master Table Lock is on (see
Master Table Lock (Master Lock) on page 7‐3, above.)
The Master Table saves the current configuration of the Master Pages (both 1 and 2.) The Master
Table also saves default settings for which program is selected on each of the 16 channels in
Program mode (note that these channel settings are often altered by loading a song in Song
mode.) The current channel and program selected in Program mode when the Master Table is
saved will be loaded by default the next time the PC3 is powered on. The Master Table saves
settings from MIDI mode for the Transmit, Receive, and Channels pages. The Master Table also
saves settings for "favorite" programs (see the User Interface Basics chapter, page 3‐4.) Lastly,
the Master Table saves settings for the Master Effects page in Effect mode.
Only one Master Table object can be saved in the PC3's internal memory, and this should be
sufficient for most users. For users who wish to save alternate Master tables for quicker access to
different system configurations, the object must be saved to an external device (see the Storage
Mode chapter.)
