and you will be asked to confirm by pressing +1/YES, or abort
the operation by pressing -1/МО. Since any Save/Load орега-

card memory), this is your last chance to make sure of what

Note 2:
i
The Yamaha
Memory Card MCD32
is also used by other
devices
than the RX8. Although it is theoretically possible for
a single card to contain data for more than one device (in
separate banks), we
recommend
that you use a different :
memory card for each device, since the memory bank struc-
ture used by cach device may differ. The RX8 uses RAM
cards of 32 kbytes' memory capacity. Even if a memory card
is quoted as having a higher capacity, the RX8 will usc only
32 kbytes.
Job 1: SELECT BANK
А memory card can contain 4 complete independent sets of RX8
data. The Select Bank job lets you choose which bank you will |

memory. Notice that the lower line of the display indicates the
