Canceling Save

Sometimes you may want to cancel saving a program before you

commit.

To cancel the Save process before you commit:

• If the

write

LED is flashing, press it again. The LED stops flashing

and saving is canceled. You can return to editing if you want.

Comparing Before You Save

Before saving a program to a new location, it’s a good idea to listen to the

program in the target location to make sure you really want to overwrite it.

To evaluate a program before you overwrite it:

1. Get ready to save by pressing the

write

switch. It starts flashing.

2. Press the

global

switch. The LED on the switch lights up, indicating

compare

mode.

3. Use the Bank and Group knobs and the Program buttons to navigate

to the sound you want to compare, then play the keyboard to hear the

sound.

4. To disable the compare function and go back to the edited sound, turn

off the

global

switch. (You can’t save a program while in compare

mode.)

5. If you want to save the edited sound, the

write

switch is still flashing

and ready to save, so enter a location with the program switches. The

sound is saved.

6. Alternatively, if you want to cancel saving and continue editing, press

the

write

button. It stops flashing and saving is canceled.
