Chapter 15 : Save / Load
The sample or sequence data you made in the MPC1000 will be deleted when you turn off the unit. If you wish to
keep the data, you need to save it to a memory card. You can use the saved files again by loading them into the
MPC1000.
About a memory card:
The MPC1000 can use the memory card called “compact flash”.The MPC1000 comes with one 32MB (megabyte)
compact flash card. You can use any memory card that supports compact flash.
Tips: MB indicates the size of the memory card. The larger this number is, the more data you can store.
Note: The size of the compact flash card that MPC1000 can handle is from 32MB to 2GB.
Note: When you use a new compact flash card with with the MPC1000, you need to format the card before use it.
For more information about formatting the card, see the “Formatting the memory card” section on page 84.
