Exporting/Importing Sound Data
From the registrations, live sets, and tones saved in the JUPITER-50, 
you can select the desired items and export them to a USB ash 
drive.
Here’s how to select the desired registrations, live sets, or tones 
from a le that was exported to a USB ash drive, and import them 
into the JUPITER-50.
When you export a registration, the live sets and tones used by 
that registration will also be exported. In the same way, when 
you export a live set, the tones used by that live set will also be 
exported.
Exporting Sound Data
1.  In the UTILITY MENU screen (p. 37), choose “Export” and 
press the [ENTER] button.
The EXPORT screen will appear.
2.  Mark the sound data that you want to export.
Select the desired registration, live set, or tone, and press the 
[F4] (MARK) button or the [F5] (MARKALL) button. If the item was 
already marked, the mark will be cleared.
You can use the [F1] (REG), [F2] (LIVE SET), and [F3] (TONE) buttons 
to mark or unmark registrations, live sets, and tones, respectively.
When you mark an item, an “*” will appear at the left of the Number/
Name.
A “+” symbol will automatically appear for the live sets or tones used 
by sound data marked with an “*” symbol. The “+” symbol cannot be 
directly erased.
MEMO
The only tones that can be exported are SuperNATURAL Synth 
tones.
3.  Press the [F6] (EXPORT) button.
You can rename the le that will be exported.
To rename the le, press the [F1] (RENAME) button.
MEMO
•  The exported sound data will be saved together in a single le 
named ***.SVD, located below /ROLAND/SOUND in the USB 
ash drive.
•  If you export a registration that uses a user arpeggio style, the 
two les ***.SVD and ***.BIN will be created.

If you’ve edited a sound and have saved it with the name 
“INIT REGIST,” “INIT LIVESET,” or “INIT SYNTH,” it may be 
automatically selected as the destination for the import.
If you then execute the import, this data will be overwritten 
and lost. The lost sound data cannot be recovered.

“INIT REGIST,” “INIT LIVESET,” and “INIT SYNTH.”

sound data items being imported.
