CHAPTER
VII:
STORING
VOICE
AND
PERFORMANCE
DATA
I
In
this
chapter
we'll
look
at
the
DX5 STORE
mode, which
includes
all
the functions you need
to store
newly
created
voices or
performance combinations
in
an
appropriate
internal or external
memory
location.
When
you
create or
edit a
voice
or
performance combination,
the
editing
is
done
in
the
DX5's
voice
edit buffer
or
performance
edit buffer,
respectively (See
CHAPTER
II:
VOICE
AND PERFORMANCE
MEMORY
CONFIG-
URATION).
All
the
store functions
are
concerned
with
moving
data
from
either the voice
edit buffer or the
per-
formance
edit
buffer-or both-to
an
internal or external
memory
location.
Three
basic functions
are accessible
In
the
STORE
mode:
STORE
ALL,
STORE
VOICE
and
STORE PERFORMANCE.
Each
of
these
will
be discussed
in detail,
below.
The
STORE mode
is
accessed by
pressing the cream
colored
STORE
switch on
the bottom
row
of the
rightmost
p,
j^group
of
buttons on
the
DX5
panel.
The
three
STORE
mode
functions
are
then
called
in
succession
by
pressinq
^the-1
/NO/OFF
switch.
^
SrOffE ALL
The
STORE ALL
function simultaneously
stores the contents
of the
A
and B
channel
voice and performance
edit buffers into the
currently selected
voice
and
performance
memory
locations.
The
currently selected
KEY
ASSIGN
MODE
and INTERNAL/CARTRIDGE memory
status
is
also stored
in
the performance
memory. With
this function the data
is
always
returned
to
the
memory
locations from
which
it
was
originally called.
If
the an
internal voice
memory
is
selected, then the voice data
will
be
stored back
into the
same
internal voice
memory
location
after editing.
Likewise,
if
an
external
RAM
cartridge
voice
is
selected, then the voice data
will
be
stored back
into the
same
RAM
cartridge
memory
location (assuming
that the
RAM
cartridge
memory
protect switch
is
OFF). The
same
applies to the
performance memories:
a per-
formance combination
called
from
the
internal
performance
memory
will
be
stored
back
into
the
same
internal
memory
location,
and
a
performance combination
called
from an
external
RAM
performance
cartridge
will
be
stored back
into the
same
k
RAM
cartridge
memory
location.
STORE ALL
is
the
first
function
called
when
the
STORE mode
is
entered.
The
display
will
look
like this:
The
STORE ALL
function
is
executed simply by
pressing the
+1
/YES/ON
button
PROTECT
M
EMORY
WRITE
(function job P7-J1
)
must be
OFF
or an
error
message
will
appear.
If
the
-1
/NO/OFF
switch
is
pressed, the next
STORE mode
function
will
be
called.
STORE
VOICE
This function
is
called by
pressing the
-1
/NO/OFF
switch once
after entering the
STORE
mode. The
STORE
VOICE
function permits
storing voice data
from
the voice
edit buffer to
a specified
internal or
external voice
memory
location.
Voice
data
called
from
either the
internal or
external cartridge
voice
memory
can be
stored
in
a different
memory
location.
A
voice
called
from an
external voice
cartridge
may
be
stored
in
an
internal voice memory,
or vice versa;
a
voice
called
from channel
A may
be
stored
in
a
channel B
voice
memory, and
vice-versa;
etc.
