Changing the Name of
Performance Data
(Song Name)
When you create a song, it will automatically be given
a name like “InitSong001.” However this makes it dif-
ficult to remember what song it is. We recommend
that you assign a unique name to your song so that
data management will be easier.

the current song.
2. Press [SONG] several times until “SNG Song
Name/Prtct?” appears in the display.

wish to modify will blink. Use CURSOR[ ]

dial. By holding down [SHIFT] as you rotate the
TIME/VALUE dial you can make the characters
change more rapidly.
6. When you have finished writing the song name or
comments, hold down [SHIFT] and press [STORE
(ZERO)].
“STORE OK ?” appears in the display.
7. Press [YES].
The song is saved.
8. Press [PLAY (DISPLAY)].
Return to Play condition.
