VA-76 – Disk Save (saving data to disk)

15.3 Disk Save (saving data to

disk)

In this manual and while designing the VA-76, we
tried to make a clear distinction between saving and
writing/memorizing data. The terms write/Memorize
are used to describe actions that cause certain settings
to be saved to an internal memory. Save, on the other
hand refers to the act of copying internal memory set-
tings to disk.

Save Style

[FUNCTION MENU]

[Disk] field

[Save] field

[Style] field

Use this function to save a newly programmed or
edited User Style to disk. You should do so as fre-
quently as possible.

These fields allow you to select the disk

you want to save the data to.

Execute— Press [EXECUTE] to confirm your settings
and save the data to disk.

Press the [Name] field if you want to name your
Style

Style Name— This is the “internal” name of a Music
Style. This name appears on the Master page, the
Music Style selection page, etc. It is usually the “mean-
ingful” name. Press this field and enter the Style
Name. See page 68 for details.

File Name— This is the name the Music Style has on
disk and by which the VA-76 recognizes it (its
“address”). If you change this name of a Music Style,
the Disk Link function no longer finds the Style. Press
this field and enter the desired name. See page 68 and
page 170 for details.

Save Song

[FUNCTION MENU]

[Disk] field

[Save] field

This page allows you to save the Song that is currently
in the VA-76’s Song RAM memory to disk. See page 67
for details.

Save User Program Set

[Save] field

[User Prg] field

This function allows you to save all 128 User Programs
as a set. This also includes the Scale Tuning memories,
One Touch assignments, Preferred Tone, and Disk
Link Style assignments. The Size value indicates the
capacity required to save the User Program Set to disk,
while Free Disk Area tells you something about the
remaining disk capacity.

These fields allow you to select the disk

you want to save the data to.

Set.
