floppy disk, you will be asked whether you want to
overwrite. If you wish to overwrite, press the OK but-
ton. If you wish to save without overwriting, press the
Cancel button, re-do the operation from step 6, and
rename the data in step 7 before saving it.
The LCD screen will show the files that were saved.
The various types of data are saved as the following
files.
.PCG file
Programs, combinations, user drum kits, user arpeggio
patterns, and global settings that were saved in inter-
nal memory
.SNG file
Sequencer songs and cue lists
.KSC file
A file which lists the multisamples and samples used
Directory
A directory containing the multisamples (.KMP files)
and samples (.KSF files) that are listed in the .KSC file
Other ways to save
In addition to “Save All,” the page menu commands
include a “Save PCG” command which saves program,
combination, drum kit, user arpeggio pattern, and global
setting data, a “Save SEQ” command which saves only
the sequencer song and cue list data, and a “Save Sam-
pling Data” command which saves only the multisamples
and samples (☞PG p.167). Select the page menu com-
mand that is appropriate for the data you want to save to
external media.
When using “Save All,” “Save PCG & SNG,” and
“Save PCG” to save combinations, you should also
remember to save the programs used by each timbre
(and the drum kits used by the programs) and user
arpeggio patterns at the same time.
Similarly when saving programs, you should also
remember to save the drum kits and user arpeggio
patterns used by the programs.
If your programs or drum kits use multisamples and
samples that were created in on TRITON STUDIO,
we recommend that you use “Save All” to save the
data.
When you use “Save PCG” or “Save Sampling Data”
to individually save a program or drum kit, or a mul-
tisample or sample that you created, we recommend
that you save them under the same filename in the
same directory. When you use “Load PCG” to load a
.PCG file, the identically-named .KSC file will also be
loaded so that the correct multisamples/samples will
correspond automatically.
