Multi Pad Creator
The 9000Pro has 58 recordable banks that you can use to store your own Multi Pad phrases. These orig-
inal Multi Pads can be played and used in the same way as the presets. Multi Pad data can also be saved
to and loaded from disk.
The operations for each function corresponding to step #4 are covered in the following explanations.
Basic Procedure
Select a Multi Pad
number.
1
Press the [DIGITAL
RECORDING] button.
2
Select “MULTI PAD CREATOR.”
3
Select a menu.
Select this to engage the Record
standby mode (synchronized standby).
4
Record/Edit Multi Pad data.
Select a Multi Pad
Bank.
5
Store the created pad to Flash ROM. (See “NOTE” below)
6
Exit from the Digital Recording mode.
Use the [NEXT] or
[BACK] button.
Select this to name the Multi Pad Bank.
Select this to store the recorded pad
data to Flash ROM. See the “CAU-
TION” notes below.
Select this to call up the
Step Recording display.
Since newly created Multi Pad data is stored to Flash ROM, any pre-programmed data in the selected Multi Pad loca-
tion will be erased and replaced by your new settings. This includes all of the factory programmed Multi Pad banks.
If you've deleted the factory-set data, you can use the Restore function (page 154) to load a copy of it from the
included disks (page 6).
For details about Flash ROM, refer to “Memory Structure” on page 54.

58 banks can be replaced by the
new created pad data.
CAUTION
• The recorded data of the
Multi Pads is stored together
in a group of 58 banks in the
Flash ROM. For this reason,
you should be careful when
making edits and storing
your edits, since all 58 banks
will be overwritten with the
new data.
• Multi Pad banks #59 and #60
contain specially programmed
presets for sending MIDI con-
trol messages (page 77) and
changing the Scale Tuning set-
tings (page 158), respectively.
You cannot store your custom
Multi Pad data to these banks.
