Computer-related Operations

6

At the left center of the main window, click “Electronic Musical Instruments,” then select the
desired destination drive.

• If you wish to transfer Song (***.mid) or Style (***.sty) data to internal memory of the instrument, select

“Flash Memory.”

• If you wish to transfer Song (***.mid) or Style (***.sty) data to the USB storage device connected to the USB

TO DEVICE terminal of the instrument, select “USB.”

• If you wish to transfer Backup file (****.bup) data, select “System Drive.”

NOTE

• When a “USER FILES” folder is located under “Flash Memory” or “USB”:

For User Songs, select “USER FILES.” Song files outside the “USER FILES” folder will be handled as External Songs.
For External Songs, select a folder other than “USER FILES,” or simply specify “Flash Memory” or “USB” (the area first displayed when clicking
“Flash Memory” or “USB”). If you select “USER FILES” for External Songs, they will not be played back on the instrument.

IMPORTANT

• Regarding Backup files, User Songs and User Styles created on the instrument, never change the file name on the computer. Doing so

makes it impossible to transfer the Backup file to the instrument, and prevents User Song and User Style data from being recognized by
the instrument.

7

Select the file in the upper half box, then click the downward [Move] button.
A confirmation message will appear. To cancel the operation, click [CANCEL] in this step.

8

Click [OK] to start data transfer from the computer to the instrument.

NOTICE

• Never unplug the USB cable during data transfer. Not only will the data transfer fail, but also operation of the memory media may become

unstable and its contents may disappear completely when the power is turned on or off.

9

After data transfer is completed, close the window to quit the Musicsoft Downloader.

10

On the instrument, use the data to play music.
If you’ve transferred a Backup file (****.bup), confirm that the panel settings have been changed as expected.
If you’ve transferred a Song (***.mid) or Style (***.sty), select the corresponding number then start playback.
For details, refer to the Owner’s Manual of the instrument, or refer to
