Chapter 8
Saving Edits to the XV-
5080's Internal Memory
(Write)
If you turn the power off or select another Patch,
Performance, or Rhythm Set after you have modified a Patch,
Performance or Rhythm Set, the changes you have made will
be lost. If you wish to preserve the data, store it into the XV-
5080's USER memory.
The following number of Patches, Performances, and
Rhythm Sets can be saved in internal memory:
128 Patches, 64 Performances, and 4 Rhythm Sets
* When saving tones that use samples loaded to the SIMM, you
must carry out the Write operation, then save all the data,
including the data in the SIMM, to the memory card or Zip
disk (p. 195, p. 200).
* By selecting a file (.SVD) with CARD or XV-5080 settings
saved in Step 5, you can then save directly to the memory card.
1. Make sure the Patch, Performance, or Rhythm Set that
you wish to save is selected.
2. Press [SYSTEM/UTILITY], getting its indicator to start
blinking.
* If the indicator is steadily lit, you are in SYSTEM mode. Press
[SYSTEM/UTILITY] once again, so the indicator is blinking.
3. Press [F6 (Menu)] to select Menu 1.
4. Press [F1 (Write)].
The Write page will appear.

5. Either by rotating the VALUE dial, or by pressing [INC]/
[DEC], select the save destination.
* When saving a Patch or Rhythm Set, you can use the Compare
function to check the sound of the Patch or Rhythm Set at the
save destination. (p. 194)
* If saving to a CARD, select the save destination file. In this
case, the Patch, Performance, or Rhythm Set is overwritten on
the card. If there is no file, use the SAVE procedure (p. 195, p.
200) to save the entire internal memory.
* Files (.SVD) created on devices or instruments other than the
XV-5080 are not displayed when data is being written.
6. Press [F6 (Execute)], and the material will be saved. You
are then returned to the PLAY page.

Once set to "OFF," Write Protect remains disabled until the

Compare Function (Patch/Rhythm Set)
The Compare function allows you to play the Patch/
Rhythm Set currently stored in the selected memory
location so that you can make sure you really want to
overwrite it. To play the stored Patch/Rhythm Set, press
[F1 (Compare)] to display the Patch Compare/Rhythm
Compare page.

You can select the write destination in this display as
well. After selecting the write-destination Patch/Rhythm
Set, press [F1 (Write)] or [EXIT] to return to the Write
page.
* Please be aware that when the Compare function is used
to play a Patch/Rhythm Set, it may sound slightly
different than when it is played normally.
