Copying A Pattern; Erasing A Pattern - Roland JP-8080 Owner's Manual

Copying a Pattern

The pattern of any key (internal or memory card) can be
copied to a different internal key. At this time, you can
specify that the data be copied with a transposition of up to
2 octaves in semitone steps.
* Since the copied pattern will overwrite the pattern that
is currently stored for the copy destination key.
* Do not turn off the power during the Pattern Copy oper-
ation. Pattern or Motion data (including previously-
recorded data) may be lost.

Erasing a Pattern

In cases such as when you wish to re-record a pattern from
scratch, you can erase a specified internal pattern.
* If you perform the following procedure, a pattern you
created will be cleared (erased). If you wish to keep the
pattern, you can copy it to another key beforehand or
save it to a memory card (p.131) before erasing it.
* Do not turn off the power during the Pattern Clear oper-
ation. Pattern or Motion data (including previously-
recorded data) may be lost.

pattern that you wish to clear (erase) (p.95).
