Saving Recorded Songs and Handling the Files...[FILE]

Saving recorded or other songs to Clavinova Storage
memory...[SaveToMemory]

If you record a song, then turn off the power to the Clavinova, the song will be erased. To save the recorded
song, you must save it into the Clavinova Storage memory or to a floppy disk. (To save a song to a floppy
disk, refer to the next section [SaveToDisk].) You can also save the preset songs, disk songs, and additional or
overwriting recordings (page 46) to Storage memory.

Procedure

See page 51 the basic operation information. The following is a detailed pro-
cedure of Step 4.

To insert a space, press the C [–]/[+] buttons simultaneously.
To select a character on the cursor, use the D [–]/[+] buttons.
