Midi Record; Format - KETRON X1 Owner's Manual

MIDI RECORD: from the main Edit Pattern display screen, you can have access to Midi Record F9.
Thanks to this function, you can record the Pattern directly from a complete sequence transmitted
by Computer or Sequencer .

Deactivate Midi Clock In , Out and Thru on the instrument

7) Select the MIDI RECORD function using F7

of the sequence to be transmitted.

FORMAT: the Format function formats the Flash ROM of the instrument.
This operation deletes all the Patterns stored in the instrument, restoring the available memory
percentage to a maximum of 99%.
This is quite a risky operation and for this reason some Confirm Warnings have been provided
before formatting is actually executed.
If the Flash ROM of the instrument is to be formatted:
Press key F10 three times (following the warnings given on the Display)
1
Then press key F5 to definitely confirm the operation.
