Backing up your data to a computer
■ Backing up the instrument data to a computer
Once you’ve saved data to a USB storage device, you can copy the data to the hard disk of your
computer, then archive and organize the files as desired. Simply reconnect the device as
shown below.
■ Copying files from a computer hard disk to a USB storage device
Files contained on the hard disk of a computer can be transferred to the instrument by first
copying them to the storage media, then connecting/inserting the media to the instrument.
Not only files created on the instrument itself but also Standard MIDI files created on other
devices can be copied to a USB storage device from the hard disk of the computer. Once
you’ve copied the data, connect the device to the USB [TO DEVICE] terminal of the instru-
ment, and play back the data on the instrument.
