Direct Save - Yamaha QY-300 Owner's Manual

Disk Operations

Direct Save

The disk write-protect
slide must be in the
write-enable position to
perform a save operation. If it is
not, the "Write Protected!" error
message will appear when you
attempt to execute the save op-
eration.
You can use the [F6]
function key ("Exit") to
exit from the disk dis-
play at any time except during
the actual save operation.

Press the [F5] function key ("Save") from the SONG, PATTERN, PHRASE,
or CHAIN mode to go directly to the corresponding disk save display.
Total number of files on disk
Cursor here to specify song, pattern,
or phrase number to be saved
(not available when saving an all-
data file via the CHAIN mode).
After specifying the song, style, or phrase to be saved (there's no need to
specify a file to be saved from the CHAIN mode since all data is saved), and
the file name under which the data is to be saved, press the [ENTER] key to
begin the save operation.
If the specified file name already exists on the disk, the QY300 will ask
you to confirm that you want to overwrite the existing file with the "Delete
Old Data?" display.
Press the [+1/YES] key to go ahead with the save operation, or the [–1/NO]
key to cancel. An "Executing" bar graph will appear while the data is being
saved, then the SONG, PATTERN, PHRASE, or CHAIN mode display will
reappear.
Total amount of data on disk (kilobytes)
Cursor here to enter file name
under which the specified song,
pattern, or phrase file will be
saved to disk.
