EPS-16 PLUS Musician's Manual Section 11 — Storage Functions
Once the instrument has been loaded, the display briefly shows FILE LOADED.
The LED above the Instrument•Track button stops flashing and remains solidly
lit red, indicating that there is now an instrument in that location which can be
selected by pressing that button.
If you tell the EPS-16 PLUS to load an instrument into a location which already
has an instrument loaded (LED lit), the new instrument will be loaded into that
location and the one that was there will be automatically deleted.
• You might have to delete an instrument(s) before loading the new one. If there
are already one or more instruments loaded into the EPS-16 PLUS, there might
not be enough free memory to load the new one. In this case, the display will
say PICK INST TO DELETE. At this point you have three choices. You can:
> Press any loaded instrument button. That instrument will be deleted from
memory and the new one will be loaded; or
> Press Enter•Yes. The EPS-16 PLUS will delete an instrument (or
instruments, as needed) for you, starting from the highest-numbered one in
memory; or
> Press Cancel•No. The Load command will be canceled with no harm done.
Note: You can continue to select and play existing instruments while the new one loads.
Saving an Instrument to Disk
After you have created a new EPS-16 PLUS instrument, or made changes to an
existing instrument, you can save the instrument to a formatted EPS-16 PLUS
disk with the following steps:
• Insert a formatted disk into the drive. If you don't have a formatted disk,
format one before proceeding (see Format Floppy Disk earlier this section).
• Press Command, then press Instrument. This puts you on the
COMMAND/Instrument page, which contains all the instrument-related
commands. Check to make sure that the instrument you want to save is
selected. If not, press its Instrument•Track button to select it
• Press the Left or Right Arrow button until the display reads SAVE
INSTRUMENT. (Or use this shortcut — after pressing Command, double-
click on the Instrument button.)
• Press Enter•Yes.
• Edit the Instrument Name (if needed):
