Saving and writing data
Saving your edits
Understanding Write and Save
"Writing" refers to saving data aside from song, sample and
multisample data, including programs, combinations, set
lists, wave sequences, drum kits, arpeggio patterns, effect
presets and so on. Writing data will save it to internal
memory. These settings will remain in the NAUTILUS even
after you turn off the power.
"Saving" refers to saving data as a file to the internal drive or
to an external USB storage device. The save operation
applies to songs, samples, multisamples and the like. Also,
saving is a convenient function, since you can use it for all
types of data.
For details, refer to "Loading & saving data" of the OG.
Writing Programs
Here, we'll show you how to write (save) a program to
internal memory.
1. Select the Write Program command from the page
menu, at the upper right-hand corner of the screen.
This brings up a dialog box which allows you to save the
Program. Optionally, you can also select a new location,
change the Program's name, and assign it to a sound
category (such as keyboard, guitar, etc.).
2. Press the program name to call up the Rename dialog
box and use the keyboard on the display to name your
program.
3. After entering the name, press OK button.
The Rename dialog will disappear, returning you to the main
Write dialog.
4. Press the pop-up button below "To" in the dialog box
to specify the save destination. A dialog box will open.
5. Select a location to save the edited Program.
Initialized programs come preloaded in banks P–T by
factory default. You can save your data in these banks.
Important: HD-1 Programs can only be written to HD-1
Banks, and EXi Programs can only be written to EXi
Banks. For more information on the default Bank types,
and on how to change them, please see "HD-1 and EXi
Bank Types" on page 9.
Note that you cannot overwrite GM programs that you
have edited. Write this data in an HD-1 bank.
6. Press the OK button if you want to write the data, or
press the Cancel button to quit.
The display will show the message "Are You Sure ?" after
you press the OK button.
Press OK button once more to write the data. The program
will be saved.
Saving and writing data
Saving data
Anything that you create or edit in the NAUTILUS can be
saved to drive.
You can store all of this data together in a single step.
1. Press the MODE button to select MEDIA mode.
2. Press the "Save" tab to enter the Save page.
3. Optionally, press Drive Select to select the drive to
which to save.
4. Select the directory in which you want to save the
data.
Press the Open button to move to a lower level, or press the
Up button to move to an upper level.
When creating a new directory to save to, use the "Create
Directory" page menu command in the Utility page in
MEDIA mode to create the directory for saving.
5. On the Save page, press the page menu button to open
the page menu, and select the Save All command.
This command will save a set of .PCG, .SNG, and .KSC files
all at once.
6. To change the filename, press the filename, and input
a new filename using the keyboard displayed.
When you've finished inputting the name, press OK button.
Note: All of the files will share the same name, with
different suffixes to show the data type (.PCG, .SNG, .KSC).
Note: If the Songs include audio tracks, the audio data will
be saved as WAVE files. These are stored in a directory
named after the .SNG plus "_A" (for Audio) at the end, in
the same directory as the .SNG file itself.
7. Press the Program section's Selection button to note
the banks being saved.
Let's leave all of the boxes checked, so that all of the internal
data is saved.
8. Press the OK button to exit the dialog box.
The display returns to the main Save dialog.
9. Press the OK button to save the data to drive.
Note: When saving Combinations, remember to also save
the Programs it uses, as well as the Drum Kits, Wave
Sequences and Arpeggio patterns used by the Programs.
Similarly, when saving Programs, remember to save the
Drum Kits, Wave Sequences and Arpeggio patterns used by
the programs. Use the "Load selected" command to load the
.KSC file with the same name as the .PCG file. This will
correctly load the corresponding multisamples and samples.
