Saving a Song
1. Select a “USER” file to save.
Select a “USER” file to save by using the [SONG SELECT] and [–/NO][+/YES]
buttons.
2. Select a “USB” file in the device and save the
“USER” file.
After making sure that the USB storage device is connected to the instrument,
press the [FILE] button (the “SAVE TO USB” indicator lights). Then, while hold-
ing the [FILE] button, simultaneously press the [–/NO][+/YES] buttons to select
a “USB” file (S00–S99). After releasing the [FILE] button, “n Y(no/yes)
appears in the display. Press the [+/YES] button to save the files. The file is saved
into the “USER FILES” folder and named as “USERSONGxx.MID.”
Overwriting the song
If you select a “USB” file which contains an SMF song, three dots appear in the
display (ex., “S.0.0.”). If you do not want to overwrite the file, press the [–/NO]
button when “n Y (no or yes)” appears in the display and select another “USB”
file. If you want to overwrite the file, press the [+/YES] button. After “n~Y
appears in the display again to confirm whether you wish to overwrite the file or
not, press the [+/YES] button once more.
CAUTION
While the instrument is accessing data (such as during Save, Load, Delete and For-
mat operations) or is mounting the USB storage device (shortly after the connection:
until the FILE LOAD LED flash stops), do NOT unplug the USB cable, do NOT remove
the media from the device, and do NOT turn the power off to either devices. Doing
so may corrupt the data on either or both devices.
3. Exit from the file operation mode.
Press the [FILE] button several times to exit the file operation mode. (The FILE
indicators turn off.)
Play the recorded song (see pages 36).
CAUTION
Do not rename “USER” files on a computer. If the file name is changed in this way,
the file cannot be loaded to the instrument.

If the selected file has no data,
the file will not be saved (you can-
not select a container for SMF
songs — S00–S99). Confirm that
the selected file has data by mak-
ing sure that the indicator of
[RIGHT] or [LEFT] is turned on.
NOTE
If you move an SMF song from the
“USER FILES” folder to the top
folder using a computer, the file
type will be changed — from a
SMF song (S00–S99) to an Exter-
nal song.
