Chapter 8. Saving Sounds

Modifications you make to a sound are temporary, and will
be lost when the power is turned off, or when another
Performance, Patch or Rhythm Set is selected. If you wish to
keep the modified Tones, perform the

Save

operation.

If the settings of a Performance, Patch, or Rhythm Set have
been modified, a

*

symbol will appear at the left of the group

in the corresponding PLAY page, indicating that the data has
been modified. After you save the data to the XV-88 (user
memory), the

*

symbol will disappear.
