Note when backing up or loading
* If you back up user samples as well, it may take several
minutes to save the data depending on the size of the
user samples. If you don’t back up user samples, and
you then delete user samples or renumber them, the
kit won’t be reproduced correctly even if you load the
backup.
* When you load user samples, new user samples are
created even if the same user samples already exist. The
newly created user samples are automatically assigned
to the loaded kit.
* In order to load user samples, there must be sufficient
free space for the user samples.
