Overview of the VC-1
fig.12-24b
Work Area
When the VC-1 is inserted in the VariOS’s PC CARD slot, the system program and patch data is loaded
from the VC-1 into the VariOS. The section where the system and patch data is loaded is called the
Work
Area
. Content loaded to the Work Area is cleared when the VariOS’s power is turned off. For this reason,
if you remove the VC-1 from the VariOS and switch the power off, then on again, the VariOS reverts to its
ordinary state.
In addition, banks (containing data for 64 patches) bulk dumped from an original D-50 (or other MIDI
device) are also stored temporarily in the Work Area. Bulk dumped data is cleared if the power is simply
turned off, so be sure to save the data to the VC-1 (p. 114).
Temporary Area
Patch data selected for performance is further taken from the Work Area and placed in memory called the
Temporary Area
. Editing of tones and factors is performed on patches in this Temporary Area. Edited
patch data is lost if the power is simply turned off, so be sure to save these to the VC-1 (p. 114).
