Song Protect
Even after you’ve nished the work of creating a song, you could lose
your song by accidentally recording over it or erasing it. To prevent
such accidents, the Song Protect setting lets you protect a song so that
it cannot be erased or modi ed.
If you’ve protected a song, the RECORDER screen will indicate
“PROTECT,” and the following operations will not be possible.
• Recording
• Track editing
• Changing the song name
• Removing the song
• Song optimize
• Writing a song
• Writing or editing a rhythm arrangement
• Writing an e ect song patch
• Writing a song rhythm pattern
1. Choose Recorder Menu g 1. Song Edit g Song Protect
(p. 98).
The display will ask “Protect Song?”
2. Press the [5] (EXEC) button.
If a song is protected, the song protect symbol “PROTECT” is shown in
the RECORDER screen.
To turn o the protect setting, perform the same procedure once
again.
Song Optimize (Saving space on the SD card)
When you perform track editing or punch-in/ out, the previous data
will remain on the SD card without being erased. In some cases,
this unneeded data may occupy signi cant space on the SD card,
unnecessarily using up the card’s capacity. This will reduce the
available recording time.
By executing the “Song Optimize” operation you can erase unneeded
data from the SD card and increase the amount of space that’s
available.
1. Choose Recorder Menu g 1. Song Edit g Song Optimize
(p. 98).
The display will ask “Optimize Song?”
2. If you are sure you want to execute the song optimize
operation, press the [5] (EXEC) button. If you decide not to
execute this operation, press the [6] (CANCEL) button.
The Song Optimize operation will be executed. When optimization is
completed, the display will indicate “Song Optimize Completed!”
MEMO
The Song Optimize operation erases the unneeded and unplayable
audio data from all V-tracks.
NOTE
• In some cases, it may take an appreciable amount of time for
optimization to be completed. This is not a malfunction. Don’t turn
o the power before optimization has ended.
• If you’ve executed the optimize operation, you won’t be able to
return to the state prior to optimization by executing Undo.

Song ( Song Write)
The following content is saved as song data.
• Mixer status (pan, etc.)
• Insert e ects patch number
