Store - Yamaha P-200 Owner's Manual

STORE

The P-200 has versatile and handy store and copy functions. In Edit mode you can designate whether the
changes you make in Voice Play mode and Performance Play mode will be stored automatically as you make
them (Auto Store), or will only be stored permanently after you perform a specific store operation (Non Auto
Store).
When Auto Store is designated all parameter changes are
stored automatically as you make them. Thus, you can jump
back and forth between voices and Voice and Performance
modes freely as you play, since all settings will remain as you
set them. In this case, using the store function simply copies
one Performance to a specific Performance bank and number.
When Non Auto Store is designated, in general the changes
you make to voices such as reverb and modulation settings
will be lost as soon as you change voices, Performances or
modes. After making changes in Edit mode, however, the P-
200 will prompt you and give you the opportunity to overwrite
the current edit when you try to leave Edit mode.
You will find it most convenient to set up your Performances in
Voice Play mode, Auto Store status, since voice selection is so
simple, then copy it to one of the 24 Performance memories
for instant recall when you need it.
By switching into Non Auto Store status, you can be sure that
your Performances are protected, and any changes you make
in one will not be applied unless you specifically store it.
For details about changing the Store status, see page 15.
Note that there is a fine distinction between Voice Play mode
store and Performance Play mode store functions. In Voice
Play mode, you can overwrite the current set of Voice and
Performance parameter settings. In Performance Play mode,
you can select a specific destination Performance in which to
make a duplicate, or copy the current Performance parameter
settings. Therefore, if you select a destination Performance in
which to store the current Voice Play mode Performance
parameter settings, you are storing it in the Performance Play
mode.
NOTE
Regardless of the Auto Store/Non Auto Store status, the parameter
changes made in the System, MIDI Filter and PC Table functions are always
stored automatically.
