G Transferring a backup file from the PSR-VN300 to a computer
You can transfer backup data (page 22) to a computer as a "backup file" by using Musicsoft Downloader. For details about
how to transmit backup files using the Musicsoft Downloader application, refer to the Online help topic "Transferring Data
Between the Computer and Instrument (for unprotected data)" of the Musicsoft Downloader.
• Preset Song data cannot be transmitted from the PSR-VN300.
NOTE
• Do not rename the backup file on the computer. If you do so, it will not be recognized when transferred to
the instrument.
CAUTION
• The backup data, including the five User Songs is transmitted/received as a single file. As a result, all
backup data (including the five Songs) will be overwritten every time you transmit or receive. Keep this in
mind when transferring data.

G Erasing Transferred Song Data from the PSR-VN300 Memory
To erase all Songs transferred from the computer, use "flash clear" function on page 22.

G Using Transferred Songs for Lessons
In order to use Songs (only SMF format 0) transferred from a computer for lessons it is necessary to specify which
channels are to be played back as the right-hand and left-hand parts. The procedure for setting the "guide track" is as
follows:
Select a transferred Song you want to use for lessons. Press the [FUNCTION] button a number of times until the "R-
Part" or "L-Part" appears in the display, and then use the number buttons [0]–[9], [+], [-] to select the channel you want
to play back as the specified right- or left-hand part.
We recommend that you select channel 1 for the right-hand part and channel 2 for the left-hand part.
