Note: If you want to save the song under its current name,
or the name assigned by default (Song_001), you can skip
steps (4)~(7).

4. Press the [Name] field, because you need to give
your brand-new song a name.

In fact, you even need to give your song two names: a
Song Name, and a File Name. See page 109 for the dif-
ference.

5. Press the [Song Name] field.

6. Enter the name:

• Move the cursor to the desired position using [o] and

[k].

• Enter the character for that position using the alpha-

numeric keypad. In many instances, you will have to
press the desired field several times to select the
desired character.

• Use the [A/a] field to alternate between captitals and

small letters.

• Press the [Delete] field to delete the character indi-

cated by the cursor (“_”). Press [Space] to insert a
space. Press [Insert] to insert a character at the cur-
rent position. All characters behind this position move
one position further to the right.

7. Press the [File Name] field and enter the file name.
See page 109 for details. Here, you can only enter 8
characters. All characters will be capitals.

8. Press the [EXECUTE] field to save your song.
