Menu Explanation

This function lets you pack the user samples forward. The user sample assignments for drum kits are also updated so that
RENUMBER
they will sound correctly.
* If you executed RENUMBER, and then load previously-saved backup data or kit backup data (that does not include user
samples), the user samples assigned to the drum kit will no longer be correctly reproduced.
Optimizing the user sample area
If you repeatedly import and delete user samples, the user sample area might become fragmented, reducing the number
of user samples that can be loaded.
This function optimizes the area so that user samples can be loaded.
OPTIMIZE
NOTE
5 Be sure to back up before executing this (p. 47).
5 This process might take more than an hour in some cases (This will vary depending on the number and size of the user
samples).
5 Never turn off the power while this operation is in progress. If you do so, the user samples might be lost.
5 In some cases, optimizing might not produce results.
Deleting all user samples
All user samples in the user memory are deleted.
DELETE ALL
NOTE
All user samples used in drum kits are also deleted. Pads to which a user sample is assigned will no longer produce
sound.
