Saving/Loading a song (SAVE/LOAD)
Songs you record are initially held in internal memory. A song in
internal memory will be lost when you turn off the power or when
you load a different song. If you want to keep the song, you must
save it to user memory or a memory card.
Conversely in order to edit a song (p. 149), you must first load it into
internal memory.
