Using Sound Flash Memory
Sound Flash Memory is a similar to a hard disk containing one bank. A bank is assembled in Sample RAM, then Saved to Flash Memory. Individual presets cannot be saved to Flash Memory. The process of saving a bank to Flash is outlined below. Follow these instructions carefully.
v To Save a Bank to Flash Memory:
Erase the Bank
1.Press Master.
2.Press Bank (F2).
3.Press Erase (F1).
Load the Bank you Wish to Save to Flash
4.From the main screen, press the Arrow key, then Load.

Erase Preset 000
This operation deletes the empty preset in the P000 location of the bank so it won’t get merged into your Flash Bank. Unfortunately, you must have at least one preset in the bank, so before deleting P000 we’ll create a new empty preset at location 999.

Tune
_ Turn off transposition before selecting or modifying any presets to avoid confusion. Transpose transposes the key number rather than the sample assignment. Selecting the zone and any other use of the keyboard will show the transposed key number.
Tune
This submenu contains three functions related to master tuning: Tuning Offset, Transposition, and Audition Key.
Tuning Offset
Tuning Offset adjusts the overall tuning so that you can tune to other instruments. The range of tuning offset is ±100 cents or 1 semitone in approximately 1.5 cent increments.
