* If you decide to cancel the Save operation, press [CANCEL].

4. Press [REC].

[REC] lights up, and the save is executed.

The dots in the display blink while the save is in progress.

When the dots stop blinking and remain off, the save is
completed.

Never turn off the power while the dots are blinking.
This may result in corruption of data on the memory
card.

Loading Pattern from a
Memory Card (Pattern Load)

You can load the collected data for one set (of sixteen
patterns) saved to a memory card, replacing the data in the
SP-303’s internal memory (Pattern Banks A and B). This
operation is called Pattern Load.

When this operation is performed, the internal data of
the SP-303 will be overwritten. Be sure to make a backup
of important data before you do this.

1. Press [PATTERN SELECT], and confirm that the

button has lit.

* If already lit, there is no need to press the button.

* Take care to note that if [PATTERN SELECT] is not lit, the

SP-303 will then proceed with the Sample Load operation.

2. Hold down [CANCEL] and press either BANK [A] or

[B].

BANK [A] or [B] light up, and the pads corresponding to
the area numbers containing data begin to blink.

* If there are no patterns saved to the memory card, then

“EMP” appears in the display, and you cannot proceed further
with the operation.

3. Press a pad to specify the card area that you wish to

load into internal memory.

Pressed pads remain lit, and [REC] blinks.

* If you decide to cancel the Load operation, press [CANCEL].

4. Press [REC].

[REC] lights up, and loading is executed.

The dots in the display blink while loading is in progress.

When the dots stop blinking and remain off, loading is
completed.

Never turn off the power or remove the memory card
while the dots are blinking. This may result in damage to
the memory card and corruption of data in the internal
memory.

Protecting the Data on
Memory Cards (Protect)

Write protect stickers are included with SmartMedia.

These stickers are used to prevent data from accidentally
being deleted or overwritten.

Be sure to put these write protect stickers on SmartMedia
cards to which important data is saved.

* You cannot sample or record patterns to a memory card

(Banks C and D) that has a write protect sticker affixed to it.
(Samples settings cannot be changed as well.)
Additionally, you cannot save samples and patterns to the
memory card.
