Previewing Synth Legends Vol. 1
Backing Up the JUPITER-50’s Current Memory
To preview your new sounds, we’re going to use the Synth Legends
Vol. 1 backup file. This is a simple process, but it will replace all of your
user data, so before proceeding, you’ll want to back up everything
currently in the JUPITER-50. This way, we can easily return all your
data to your JUPITER-50 after checking out Synth Legends Vol.1.
(Backing up is a good thing to do on a regular basis anyway.)
Be sure to use a thumb drive that doesn’t already hold a backup file,
since you can only have one on each drive. If you back up to a drive
that already contains a backup, the new one replaces the old one.
Here’s how to perform a backup.
1
Press the MENU button to display the Menu screen.
2
Select Utility from the displayed list, and then press ENTER.
3
With Backup already highlighted, press ENTER.
4
When the JUPITER-50 asks if you’re sure, press ENTER again to
reform the backup of the contents of the JUPITER-50’s memory.

Listening to the Synth Legends Sounds
The 60 Synth Legend registrations are now in place starting in the first
registration bank, [01]A.
Try out all of the registrations, noting the name of each one you’d like
to incorporate into your everyday JUPITER-50 sound set.
It may be that you’d like to import some of the Synth Legends live
sets and/or tones for use in your own registrations. Go through the
individual live sets and tones to see if there are any you want. Later
on, when you’re importing sounds, you can grab any that aren’t
already being imported with registrations.
Don’t forget to try out the Synth Legends arpeggios. To learn more
about them, see the
Using and Understanding Synth Legends Vol.

booklet.

then turn the JUPITER-50 back on.

ready to start loading the things from Synth Legends you want to use.
