Chapter 4 Recording and Saving the Performance
Chapter 4
■ Saving Your Songs on Floppy Disk
A recorded performance is discarded when you switch off the power, or
choose another song. The process of storing data such as recorded
performances on floppy disk is called “saving.” It’s a good idea to store
important songs on floppy disk.
Before using a new floppy disk or a floppy disk used on another device, it
must be formatted on the KF-90. Take a look at “Formatting Floppy Disks
(Format)” (p. 109).
1. Make sure the write-protect tab on the floppy disk is
positioned at “WRITE” (write enabled).
For details, refer to p. 110.
2. With the label of the floppy disk facing upward, insert it
into the disk drive until it clicks into position.
3. Press the [Song/Disk] button.
A Song/Disk screen appears.
4. Touch <Disk> on the screen.
A Song Disk Menu screen appears.
5. Touch <Save>.
The following screen will appear.
fig.04-16.e_60
Touch <Exit> to go back to the Song Disk Menu screen.
6. Touch to scroll the cursor sideways, and enter the
name of the song by using the Value [-] [+] buttons or the
dial to choose the letters.
Assign a name to the song to be saved.
Touch <A-a-0-!> at the bottom of the screen to change the type of script.
Each touch of <A-a-0-!> cycles the type of characters through “English
(upper case),” “English (lower case),” “numerals,” “symbols,” then back to
“English (upper case).”
Touching <_> inserts a blank space at the cursor location.
NOTE
Depending on the playback
instrument, some notes
may drop out or sound
different.
NOTE
Some commercially
available music files cannot
b
e saved because they are
copyrighted.
If not handled with care, a
floppy disk can get
cracked, or the data on it
can get corrupted, making
playback impossible. We
recommend saving your
songs on two different
floppy disks. By putting
away for safekeeping an
additional copy of a floppy
disk on which your songs
are saved, you can feel
safer.
NOTE
Inserting a floppy disk
containing one or more
saved songs into another
device (such as a computer)
with the floppy disk’s
protect tab left in the
“write” position may,
depending on the device,
render the songs on that
floppy disk permanently
unplayable (refer to the
cautions on p. 6).
