SQ-80 — Musician's Manual
*EXIT*
The Button beneath the word *EXIT* can be pressed at any time to exit the WRITE Page and return
to the Page you were on before entering it.
Copying an Existing Program to Another Location
Sometimes you'll want to take an existing Program, one that you haven't been editing, and simply copy
it to another Memory Location. For example, you might want to put the ten most commonly used
Programs in the same Bank, for easy access during performance. Normally, the
WRITE Page "looks"
at the Edit Buffer. But you have the option of Writing an existing, unedited Program.
First select the Program you want to copy. Then press the
WRITE Button. Pressing the WRITE Button
when the *C* (Change/Compare) is not showing in the lower-left corner of the Display causes the SQ-
80 to ask you the following question:
Answering
*YES* places the Current
Program onto the
WRITE Page, and
you can now use the
WRITE Page
exactly as before to copy that Program
to any other Memory Location. Again,
remember that you will erase whatever
Program you write over — it's not a
bad idea to save all Internal Programs
to a Cartridge or to disk before doing any major Memory reshuffling, because once a Program is gone,
it's gone.
Answering
*NO* will put you on the WRITE Page with the Edit Program showing.
