Arrange - Yamaha A4000 Owner's Manual

• Overwrite the object on disk with the object from memory.
Push this knob if you want to overwrite the existing disk object
with the object that you are saving. If you select this option, the
A5000/A4000 will delete the original disk object and replace it
with the object from main memory.
• Abort the save operation.
Push this knob to terminate the save operation without executing
any further saves. Note that it is not possible to undo any saves
that you have already completed.
Saving and loading to or from multiple floppy disks.
• Data which is too large to fit on a single floppy disk can be segmented and
saved to multiple floppy disks. A confirmation display allowing you to choose
to abort the save operation or save to multiple floppies will appear when sav-
ing data too large for a single floppy. Press Knob 5 (OK) to execute a multi-
floppy save. You will not need to change disks at this point.
• When performing a multi-floppy save, follow the instructions on the display
and insert new floppy disks as required. Unformatted disks can be used from
the second disk onward (unformatted disks will automatically be formatted
without interrupting the save operation).
• Multi-floppy data is saved in a special format, and saved programs and sam-
ples cannot be verified in the DISK mode. For this reason, single programs or
samples cannot be loaded from floppy disks saved in this way, and addition
programs or samples cannot be saved to the disks.
• Data saved to multiple floppy disks can be loaded by first inserting the first
floppy disk and executing the load operation from the DISK-VOLUME display
(page 172). Then all you need to do is change floppies as directed by the dis-
play.
• The disk names for multiple-saved floppy disks are the name of the first disk
plus a consecutive numbers. The disks must be changed in the order of their
consecutive numbers when loading the data.
• Since the contents of floppy disks saved in this way cannot be verified in the
disk mode, choose a disk name that clearly reflects the disks' contents.
