Basic Operation

Memory Structure

The 9000Pro features three different memory provisions for storing your original data: Flash ROM, RAM,
and Disk.

Flash ROM
The 9000Pro includes special Flash ROM memory. Unlike conventional ROM, Flash ROM can be overwritten — allowing you
to store your own original data. The contents of Flash ROM are maintained even when the power is turned off.

RAM
This is the conventional “internal” user memory of the 9000Pro. For sampling purposes, memory can be expanded to a max-
imum of 65 MB, by installing SIMM modules. Any edited data in RAM memory is lost when the power is turned off. Always
store any important data in RAM to Flash ROM or save the data to disk.

Disk
The 9000Pro also allows you to store your data to floppy disk, an optional hard disk drive, or an external (optional) SCSI
device (such as a hard disk drive, or removable storage).

Store

Storing your original data to Flash ROM erases the corresponding factory data programmed to the Flash ROM (at the corre-
sponding number locations). The following data types are affected:

• One Touch Setting

• Multi Pad

• Registration Memory

• Flash Style

• Music Database

• Setup

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).
