Saving your song
A song you save to becomes a Standard MIDI File that
can be played back with the E-60/E-50, but also with
any other SMF-compatible sequencer.
There are two ways of saving new or edited songs:
• Via the
[DISK¥&¥MEDIA]
button and the related menu
(see p. 176).
• By pressing the
[SAVE]
field on the 16-track
Sequencer page.
Note:
Whenever you leave the 16-track Sequencer page by
pressing the
[EXIT]
button, the display shows a “Song has been
changed…” message that asks you whether you want to save
your changes. Press the
[YES]
field and proceed.
Here, we will show you how to save your song using
the
[SAVE]
field.
(1) On the 16-track Sequencer page, press the
[SAVE]
field.
The display now responds with:
(2) Specify where you want to save your song:
• Press the
[INTERNAL¥MEMORY]
field to select the
E-60/E-50’s internal memory as target (this is a 16MB
storage area similar to a hard disk).
• Insert a floppy disk into the drive and press the
[FLOPPY]
field.
• Press the
[EXTERNAL¥MEMORY]
field. This option is
only available if you insert a memory card into the
E-60/E-50’s PCMCIA slot.
If your floppy disk or memory card does not seem to
work, try formatting it, then try again. See “Format”
on p. 181.
Note:
If you want to save the song under its current name or
the name assigned by default (“New Song”), you can skip steps
(4)~(5).
You need to give your song two names: a SONG
NAME and a FILE NAME. The FILE NAME is the name
the E-60/E-50 uses for locating the song. The SONG
NAME, on the other hand, is displayed in the Song
Finder.
(3) Press the
[SONG¥NAME]
button icon.
(4) Enter the name:
• Move the cursor to the desired position using
[ø]
and
[˚]
.
• Enter the character for that position using the alpha-
numeric keypad. In many instances, you will have to
press a field several times to select the desired char-
acter.
• Use the
[A/a]
field to alternate between capitals and
small letters.
• Press the
[Delete]
field to delete the character indi-
cated by the cursor. Press and hold it to clear all
characters.
• Press
[Space]
to insert a space.
• Press
[Insert]
to insert a character at the current posi-
tion. All characters behind this position move one
position further to the right.
(5) Press the
[FILE¥NAME]
field and enter the file name.
Here, you can only enter 18 characters. All characters
will be capitals.
(6) Press the
[EXECUTE]
field to save your song.
The display tells you that the data are being saved,
after which it returns to the “SAVE SONG” page.

or the RECORDER
[16-TRK¥SEQ.]
button to add even
more tracks.
