Data
This section explains how to save the entire main memory contents or the waveform data for a pad to the
backup memory and how to load this data back into the main memory.
Storing and Reading Data
Bulk data (all waveform data, pad parameter settings, song data for
internal sequencer) are saved to the backup memory. The ST-224
then returns to the regular play mode. When wishing to cancel the
store process, press the [EXIT] key instead of the [SAVE] key.
• The backup memory can hold only one set of bulk data.
The previous set will be overwritten.
• During storing, all currently playing pads are stopped
(including the [SOURCE] pad).
Bulk data are copied from the backup memory into the main memory.
The ST-224 then returns to the regular play mode. When wishing to
cancel the load process, press the [EXIT] key instead of the [LOAD] key.
When the unit is turned on, the last bulk data saved in backup
memory are copied back to the main memory.
