• When changing the sound (drum kit/bass program) of pattern data imported to the RT-
323, select only PS-02 compatible sounds. (For details, see the list at the end of this
documentation.) If you select RT-323 specific drum kit/bass program sounds and
export the data to the PS-02, normal playback may not be possible.
• Do not change the names of patterns imported to the RT-323. Otherwise the pattern
name may not display correctly after the pattern is exported again to the PS-02.
• The bass line included in PS-02 pattern data is imported with the "C" root (no
transposition) and "NON" chord (no transformation) setting.
• When editing the bass track of an imported pattern on the RT-323, note that entering a
phrase with a different root or chord type may result in improper playback when the
data are exported again to the PS-02.

Writing a RT-323 pattern to a PS-02 SmartMedia card
(pattern export)
After editing pattern data imported from the PS-02 to the RT-323, you can write the data to the PS-
02 SmartMedia card again. This lets you then use the pattern data in the PS-02.
Insert a PS-02 start-up SmartMedia card into the [DATA CARD] slot on the side
1
panel of the RT-323.

the drum A track.
• The maximum number of simultaneous sounds that the PS-02 can produce is four drum
voices and one bass voice. If a pattern that exceeds these numbers is exported,
correct playback with the PS-02 will not be possible.
