If no
errors
are encountered
the "FINISHED
II!" display
will appearfor
a few seconds
and then
will
revert
to the "VERIFY
CASSETTE ?
"
display. If
an error
is found,
however,
the display
will
read "TAPE
ERROR".
If
this happens,
try SAVEing
the
data again.
Depending
on the
cassette
recorder
you use,
you may
have
to adjust
the
cassette
volume
control
and/or
tone
control to achieve
reliable
operation.
Cleaning
and
demagnetizing
the
cassette
recorder
heads might
also help.
Pressing
the LOAD/PROT
button in
the
SHIFT
mode
calls the
MEMORY
PROTECT
LOBd
ON/OFF
function
we have
already
seen, and the
cassette "LOAD
FUNC
? INT"
and
"LOAD
CASSETTE?"
functions.
Start the
load procedure
by calling
the "LOAD
FUNC ? INT"
(or "EXT")
display.
"LOAD
FUNC ?
INT"
This
function
lets
you select
whether
the
function
memory
data
from
the
cassette
tape will
be
loaded
into
the TX7
function
memories or
the
DX
function memories.
Select
either "INT",
corresponding
to the TX7
function
memories,
or "EXT",
cor-
responding
to the
DX
function memories
using
the
N0/-1 and YES/
+
1 buttons.
Then
press the
LOAD/PROT
button again
to go on to the next
step.
"LOAD
CASSETTE
?"
You are now
ready
to execute
the
actual load operation.
Wind
the
cassette
tape
to the beginning
of the file
to
be
loded
(This is
easier if
you have
recorded
voice
memos on
the
cassette tape, prior
to each data file.
You
can monitor
the
tape sound
while
searching
for the desired
file via
the
TX7's
PHONES
jack). Press
the YES/
+
1
button
and start the
cassette recorder in
the
play mode. The
TX7
display will
respond
with "NOW
WORKING
M" while
it is
searching for
the
beginning of the file.
When
the file is located
the display will
read "FOUND TX=XX",
where "XX"
is
the file
number
of the file
being
loaded. When
the file has
been loaded
the TX7
display
will read "FINISHED!!!"
for
a
few
seconds and then
will revert to
the "LOAD
CASSETTE?"
display.
Using the
TX7
Cassette
Interface
to Save
and
Load DX7
Voices
The TX7
cassette interface
can also be
used to save or load all
32 DX7
voices
plus
the
32
DX
function
memories in
the TX7.
To SAVE,
the DX7 voice memory
data
is transmitted
to the TX7
voice
memory via
the MIDI
interface,
and
then the SAVE
operation is
carried
out as described
above. To LOAD,
the
cassette data is first
loaded
into the TX7
memory,
and
then transmitted
to the DX7 via
the MIDI
interface.
In
either case
the previous
memory
contents
of the TX7
will
be completely
erased,
so make
sure
you have the TX7
memory
data on
cassette so it
is not
completely
lost.
To transfer
the
DX7
voices
to
the
TX7 for saving, first
turn the TX7
memory
protect
function OFF. Then
set the DX7
to "SYS INFO AVAIL",
call the DX7 "MIDI

function and
press the DX7
YES button
to begin the transmission.
The
TX7 display will
read
"MIDI RECEIVED!"
when the
data
from
the DX7
has
been transferred
to the TX7 voice memory.
Then,
simply
SAVE
the TX7 voice memory
plus DX function memory
("EXT")
as described above.
To
load
a voice set from
cassette tape into the DX7, first
load the
cassette file
into
the TX7
as described above. Then,
to transmit
the
TX7
voice
memory contents
to
the DX7,
turn the DX7

protect function
OFF,
set
the DX7
