Note : When formatting the hard disk or an external USB device, an additional warning appears,
to avoid accidental data loss.
Utility tab
This page includes a set of backup and restore utilities.
Full Resources Backup
This command allows you to make a full backup of all the internal data on a target device. A
“.BKP” file will be created.
Hint : This command cannot be used to save single items (like a single Style, a bank of
Performances…). To do that, use the Save operations instead.
Note : In case you want to restore the original data, use the “Factory Restore” command (see
below).
Note : You will not be able to load data from this file using the normal Media > Load operations.
This file is used for archiving purpose only. To save data that must remain accessible, for
example to load User data after updating the Musical Resources, use the Media > Save
operations instead.
1. In case you are making the backup on an external USB device, connect the device to one of
the USB Host ports. Be sure there is enough free space in your target device, or the Backup
procedure will not be completed.
2. Select the “Full Resources Backup” command, then touch the Execute button in the display.
The target device appears.
3. If needed, select a different device, by using the Device pop-up menu.
4. If you wish to save data inside another folder, select this latter and touch the Open button to
open it. Touch the Close button to go back to the parent folder.
5. Select the folder where to save data, and touch Backup to save it. If nothing is selected, data
will be saved to the current directory. After touching Backup, a dialog box will appear, asking you
to select a name for the backup file.
