Storing Edited Data

Once you've created a new voice in the edit mode, it's necessary to store the voice
to one of the VL1's internal memory locations otherwise the edited data will be lost when
a new voice is selected.
NOTES
stored will be erased. If you want to keep the previous data, save it to floppy
disk ( ≥
Page 166).
Edited voice data can only be saved to floppy disk after it has been stored to
an internal memory location.
The STORE function can be accessed from the EDIT or PLAY mode.
If you have accidentally lost an edited voice by selecting a different voice after
returning to the PLAY mode, the RECALL function can be used to restore the
edited data as long as no other data has been edited in the meantime ( ≥
