3.
On the display page that appears now, press the
[Save] field in the bottom row and the [Midi Set] field
in the left column.
Before saving a MIDI Set to disk, you should name it.
Press the [Name] field and choose a name that tells
you something about the contents. (You can only pro-
gram a “File Name”, because the names of the MIDI
Sets are never displayed.) See page 68 for how to enter
the name.

Insert a formatted Zip or floppy disk into the
desired drive.
5.
Select the drive you want to save the data to by
pressing the [ZIP] or [FLOPPY] icon.
6.
Press [EXECUTE] to save your MIDI Set to disk.
Remember that your VA-76 is multitasking, so that
you can leave this page as soon as the VA-76 starts sav-
ing the MIDI Set to disk.
7.
Press [EXIT] to return to the Master page.
Note: When saving, the term “Set” is used to refer to all 8
MIDI Set memories. In others words, when you save “a”
MIDI Set to disk, you save in fact the contents of all eight
MIDI Set memories. Loading, on the other hand can be car-
ried out selectively.
Loading a MIDI Set from disk
As stated in the above note, you are free to load just
one MIDI Set container of a given MIDI Set on the
selected disk. Feel free to only load MIDI Set container
3 from a given MIDI Set if you do not need the other 7
settings of that Set.

Press the [FUNCTION MENU] button.

[Load] field in the bottom row and the [Midi Set]
field in the left column.

Select the drive you want to load the data from by
pressing the [ZIP] or [FLOPPY] icon.
5.
Press the field that corresponds to the MIDI Set
whose data you wish to (partially) load.
If the name of the desired MIDI Set is not displayed,
use the [o][k] fields to select another group of eight
MIDI Set names.
6.
Use the “Disk” [i][m] fields to select the MIDI Set
container to be loaded from disk.
You can also select ALL, which means that all eight
containers of the selected MIDI Set will be loaded. In
that case, you cannot select the destination memory
(see below).
7.
Use the “To Int” [i][m] fields to select the internal
MIDI Set memory you wish to load the selected set-
tings to.
You can select “To Int”= 1, =2, =3..., =8. Note that this
is only possible if you did not select “ALL” for “Disk”.
8.
Press the [EXECUTE] field to load the MIDI Set
data.
9.
Press [EXIT] to return to the Master page.
The possibility to selectively load MIDI Set containers
allows you to compile “Best Of” MIDI settings by
loading them to different internal MIDI Set memo-
ries. After loading your 8 favorite MIDI settings, use
the Save function to save the “Best Of” MIDI Set to
disk.
