Data Backup Using a Computer
For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that you save your important data to your com-
puter by using the Musicsoft Downloader (MSD) software. This provides a convenient backup if the
internal memory is damaged.
Data that can be saved
●
Panel settings and recorded User songs
Panel settings are the same data that can be backed up using the Backup Functions
(page 46). You can save the panel settings and recorded User songs as one file.
●
External songs received via computer.
1.
Install the USB MIDI driver and MSD to your com-
puter (Windows), then connect the computer and
the instrument.
For connection, see page 49.
2.
Save the data to the computer.
Using MSD, save the “P-140.BUP” file from “System Drive” under “Electronic
Musical Instruments” to the computer.
The “P-140.BUP” file contains the panel settings and recorded User songs. Also,
if you store the external songs in the instrument from the computer, save the
songs from “Flash Memory” under “Electronic Musical Instruments” to the
computer via the MSD.
For instructions on using MSD, see the Help in the MSD.
To recall the settings and load songs to the instrument, save the
“P-140.BUP” file and the External songs under the folders to which you saved
the files.
You can download the USB MIDI
interface driver and Musicsoft
Downloader (MSD). Please check
the following URL for the latest
version.

NOTE
When MSD is started on a com-
puter connected to the instru-
ment, “
con
(computer
connection)” appears in the dis-
play. When this indication
appears, you cannot operate the
instrument.
The Musicsoft Downloader can-
not be used when the instrument
is in the following state:
• During Demo playback.
• During song playback.
• During Record mode.
The panel settings and User
songs (P-140.BUP file) remain in
the instrument after being saved
to the computer.
