The “Dance Kit” disk contains carefully selected sounds and music data geared toward the cur-
rent dance music scene. By using this disk, you will be able to hear for yourself how the XP-80
can be used to its full potential. Maybe it will provide some hints which can be used for your
own music!
In the “Dance Kit” you will find the following data and materials:
Demo songs: 6
Demo songs (for RPS): 14
Data files: 1 (DANCEKIT.SVD)
✳ “DANCEKIT.SVD” contains 128 patches, 32 performances, and 2 rhythm sets.
Caution
Before listening to the demo data on the disk, you have to overwrite your User memory and
System memory. If you have created any important data in the XP-80, be sure to back up your
data onto another disk first.
To store your data onto a disk, press the [DISK], press the numeric key [2], the [ENTER] to call
up the Save display (DISK/Save). On that screen, select “SOUND” for File Type parameter, and
then name your file and press the [F6] (Execute) to save the data.
After playing the demos, you will want to load your important data back into the XP-80. To do
so, Press the [DISK], Press the numeric key [1], then [ENTER] to call up the Load display
(DISK/Load). From that screen, select “SOUND” for File Type parameter, and then select your
file and press the [F6] (Execute) to load the data.
