USB Flash Drive Operations

save the data created on this instrument, such as User Song and parameter settings.
The saved data can be recalled to this instrument again for the future use.

the device is appropriate and that it is connected in the
proper direction.
NOTICE
• Avoid connecting or disconnecting the USB device
during playback/recording and file management opera-
tions (such as Save, Delete and Format), or when
accessing the USB device. Failure to observe this may
result in "freezing" of the operation of the instrument
or corruption of the USB device and the data.
• When connecting then disconnecting the USB device
(and vice versa), make sure to wait a few seconds
between the two operations.
• Do not use an extension cable when connecting a USB
