Proceed as follows to save the current 198 registers on board within a Block Registration on disk in one single file with the .REG extension:
● Press D DIISSK K to access the Disk menu.
●
Select the folder on the hard disk by entering the number with the SSTTY YLLEESS push buttons, or select the floppy disk with the PPA AG GEE ++//-- push
buttons.
●

● Select FF88 R Reeggiissttrraattiioonn.
●
In the page that appears you can enter the name of the file using the keyboard keys and the D DA ATTA A C CU UR RSSO OR R push buttons.
● Confirm the procedure using FF110 0 EExxeecc. or cancel it using FF55 EEssccaappee.
LOADING A BLOCK REGISTRATION FILE
To load a Block Registration file into the Flash RAM of the SD5, proceed as follows:
Press D
DIISSK K to access the menu and use the PPA AG GEE ++//-- push buttons to choose between the floppy and the hard disk or press FF55 FFoollddeerr CChhooiiccee
and then FF88 R Reeggiissttrraattiioonn. Select the file to be loaded from the folder currently enabled using D DA ATTA A C CU UR RSSO OR R and then confirm the procedure
using FF22 LLooaadd.
CALLING UP AND SAVING A REGISTER OF THE SINGLE REGISTRATION GROUP
The call-up function of a Single Registration is enabled by setting to Single the FF77 R Reeggiissttrraattiioonn M Mooddee parameter in the F3 Utility menu. Then
enter the number of the Single Registration/Register contained on the floppy disk or in the folder currently selected on the hard disk to call it
up. A Folder or a Floppy Disk may store up to a maximum of 999 Single Registrations, the numbering of which is automatically attributed accor-
ding to the time order in which the file is created, whereas the file will always be displayed in alphabetical order.
In both cases it is always possible to display the list of Single Registrations stored in the Folder using the D
DIISSK K menu. From this page you can
find the progressive number attributed to the Single Registrations when the file is created or you can select the Single Registration to be loa-
ded directly using the D
DA ATTA A C CU UR RSSO OR R FF110 0 SSeelleecctt and FF22 LLooaadd push buttons.
N Noottee:: The Single Registration cannot be called up using the numeric keypad in the Disk environment; therefore the Single Registration is either
selected using the normal procedures required in the Disk environment or you return to the main page of the display using the EXIT push but-
ton and enter the number of the desired Registration with REG. enabled.
To save a Single Registration on disk (.SRG extension) you must first select the target folder on the hard disk or the floppy disk.
● Press SSA AV VEE.
●
Select FF11 R Reeggiissttrr.
●
From the page that follows enter the name of the Single Registration using the keyboard keys and the D
DA ATTA A C CU UR RSSO OR R push buttons.
●
Confirm using FF110 0 SSaavvee or cancel using FF55 EEssccaappee.
AUTOMATICALLY LOADING THE TEXT FILE AND MIDI FILE USING REGISTRATIONS
This function is one of the most powerful and useful functions of the SD5. It is used to avoid lots of procedures to load the file required when
playing live. There is no operational difference between a Registration of the Block Registrations and a Single Registration.
To automatically load a text file with .TXT extension or a Midi file with .MID extension all that is needed is for the name of the Registration to
match that of the .TXT or .MID file. The Midi file will be available by enabling SSO
ON NG G PPLLA AY Y and then by pressing SSTTA AR RTT.
DEFINING WHICH PARAMETERS WILL BE CONTROLLED BY THE REGISTRATION
It could prove useful to prevent the Registrations from saving or calling up one or
a number of parameters which they control. For example, you can prevent just the
Vocal Sets or the assignment of the effects from being called up. Each single para-
meter can be detached from the Registration. These settings are achieved in the
following manner:
● From the main page of the display press FF33 U Uttiilliittyy.
●
Select FF66 R Reeggiissttrraattiioonn M Meennuu
The page displayed shows the parameters in the middle, grouped per areas to
which they belong, called up using the function push buttons. For FF33 K
Keeyybb& &U Uttiill and
FF55 A Arrrraannggee a number of parameter pages are foreseen that are called up by pres-
sing the same function push button
again. The parameters in the middle of the display are accessed using the D
DA ATTA A
C CU UR RSSO OR R push buttons whereas their enabling status is modified from FF110 0 SSeelleecctt.
The first time you access the FF66 R
Reeggiissttrraattiioonn M Meennuu the Global parameters are shown. Below is the description.
F1 Global : This is used to disable the control of all the parameters related to MIDI, Left Control, Arrange Mode, Drum Mixer, Utility, Play
Control, Effect&Micro, 2nd Voice, Global Transpose and Left Level.
F2 Drum Mixer : This is used to disable the control of the parameters of Drum On/Off, Drum Volume, Drum Reverb, Drum Pan, Manual Drum
