Load
In this page you can load User data files (Performances, User
Sounds, User Styles, the SongBook, User PCM, the Global) from
an external device to the internal memory (SSD and RAM).
Note: While in this page, only data allowed for loading are shown.
All other files are hidden.
Warning: When loading a ".SET" folder containing Sounds associ-
ated with PCM data (samples), all existing PCM data in memory
are deleted. Save the data already in memory, before loading the
new data.
To see if a ".SET" folder contains PCM data, open it and look for a
"PCM" folder.
Hint: Load single Sounds, if you want to load new PCM data with-
out deleting the ones already contained in memory. This will merge
the existing data with the new ones.
Loading all the User data
You can load all the User data with a single operation.
1.
If loading from an external device, connect the device to
one of the USB Host ports.
2.
Select the source device, by using the Device pop-up menu.
When the device is selected, its content will appear in the
display.
3.
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.
4.
Select the ".SET" folder containing the data you wish to
load, and press Load to confirm the selection.
Note: Most data loaded from an external device is merged
with data already existing in memory. For example, if there is
data in all three USER Style banks in memory (USER01,
USER02, USER03), and there is only the USER01 Style bank
in the external device, the USER01 bank is overwritten, while
USER02 and USER03 banks are left unchanged.
As a result, you will have a STYLE folder in memory contain-
ing the USER01 bank you just loaded, and the old USER02
and USER03 banks.
Note: If the .SET folder you are loading contains one or more
Sounds or Drum Kits making use of external PCM sample,
the samples are automatically loaded (unless they are already
in memory). This way, all needed samples are always loaded
together with the Sounds or Drum Kits making use of them.
See also "PCM Autoload" and "Load PCM button" on page
page 247.
Warning: When loading a ".SET" folder containing PCM
data, all existing PCM data in memory are deleted. Save
them before loading the folder, by selecting the "PCM" option
during a Save All operation (see "Saving the full memory con-
tent" on page 240).
To see if a ".SET" folder contains PCM data, open it and look
for a "PCM" folder.
To create a new .SET folder with PCM samples from different
sources, see "Merging PCM samples from various sources" on
page 250.
Loading all data of a specified type
You can load all User data of a specified type with a single opera-
tion.
1.
If loading from an external device, connect the device to
one of the USB Host ports.
2.
Select the source device, by using the Device pop-up menu.
When the device is selected, its content will appear in the
display.
3.
If the folder you are looking for is inside another folder,
select the latter and press the Open button to open it. Press
the Close button to go back to the parent folder.
4.
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...).
5.
Select the folder containing the type of data you are looking
for, and press Load to confirm your selection.
Note: Data loaded from a storage device, and data already in
memory are merged. For example, if there is data in all three
USER Style banks in memory (USER01, USER02, USER03),
and there is only the USER01 Style bank on a storage device,
the USER01 bank is overwritten, while USER02 and USER03
banks are left unchanged.
As a result, you will have a STYLE folder in memory contain-
ing the USER01 bank you just loaded, and the old USER02
and USER03 banks.
Warning: When loading PCM data, all existing PCM data in
memory are deleted. Save them before loading, by selecting
the "PCM" option during a Save All operation (see "Saving
the full memory content" on page 240).
