the display.
2. If the folder you are looking for is inside another folder,
select this latter and press the Open button to open it. Press
the Close button to go back to the parent folder.
3. Select the ".SET" folder containing the data you wish to
load, and press Open to open the ".SET" folder. A list of
User data appears (Global, Performance, SongBook,
Sounds, Style...).

6. Select the item you are looking for, and press Load to con-
firm the load. A dialog box appears, asking you to select
one of the available User locations in memory.
In the dialog box above, the previously selected Style will be
loaded into location 01 of the bank U01 (USER1 button) in
memory. The existing Style at the same memory location
will be deleted and overwritten.
Empty locations are named <empty>.
7. Select the target location, and press OK to load the source
file.
Warning: After confirming, the item you are overwriting in
memory will be deleted.
Loading Pa2X/Pa800 data
You can load Pa2X/Pa800 data exactly as if they were Pa588 data.
Only, keep in mind Pa588 cannot load User PCM Sample data,
does not include a Voice Processor section, and includes some
different Factory Sounds, Drum Kit and PCM data.
At the same time, most Pa588 data can be read by any Pa2X/
Pa800. However, keep in mind that, due to the different content
and organization, the SongBook will point to different Styles.
Loading Pa500 data
You can exchange data with Pa500 with complete compatibility.
Pa588 and Pa500 share the same data format and the same
parameters.
Loading Pa1X data
You can load Pa1X data exactly as if they were Pa588 data. Minor
differences might exist between effect parameters. Also, keep in
mind Pa588 cannot load PCM Sample data, and does not
include a Voice Processor section.
At the same time, most Pa588 data can be read by any Pa1X
(provided it is fitted with Operating System v. 3.0 or higher).
However, keep in mind the following:
• Pa588 has a more extensive range of effects, that might not
exist on the Pa1X.
• Due to the different content and organization, the Song-
Book will point to different Styles.
Loading Pa80/60 data
You can load Pa80/60 data exactly as if they were Pa588 data. The
only difference is that the "SOUND" folder of Pa588 is called
"PROGRAM" in the Pa80/60. Therefore, to load Sounds from
Pa80/60 disks, you must accomplish one of the following opera-
tions:
