Saving & Loading Registration Files on the PSR2000

Registration settings are saved in Banks of 8 to either the internal USER memory, or the FLOPPY DISK drive.  For further organization, Folders can be created and named, then multiple Registration Bank "Files" can be organized within each folder.

Saving Registrations:

1. To save a single front panel setting (a "Registration" of how your keyboard is configured) to one of the 8 REGISTRATION MEMORY buttons, press and hold the MEMORY button, then press the desired Registration Memory button [1] - [8]. 
   
   
   
   

   WARNING: These settings are saved into a temporary memory buffer and will be lost when the unit is turned OFF, unless the following steps are performed.

2. Release the buttons.
   
   
3. Repeat steps 1 - 2 for more Registrations (up to 8 total).
   
   
4. Press the [EXIT] button twice, to return to the Main screen.
   
   
5. Press the [J] button to open up the REGISTRATION BANK screen.
   
   
6. Use the [BACK] and [NEXT] buttons to select a permanent memory location (USER memory or FLOPPY DISK drive) where you will store this Registration file.
   
   
7. Registration Banks can be grouped into Folders if you want.  If you do not intend to create a folder, skip to step 8.  To create a Folder,  press the [7B] (NEW) button under the Folder icon in the Registration Bank Screen.
   
   
1. Use the [1] - [8] toggle buttons under the screen to name the Folder.  If you need help, see the lesson on naming files provided in this tutorial.
2. Press the [8A] (OK) button to store the Folder into your chosen  memory location.
3. If you are going to store the registration in this folder, press the appropriate [A] - [J] button to open your new folder.
   
   
8. Press the [6B] (SAVE) button under the screen.
   
   
9. Use the [1] - [8] toggle buttons under the screen to name the Registration Bank File.  You should provide an appropriate name for the registration file.  The naming files lesson explains how to name files.
   
   
10. Press the [8A] (OK) button to save the Registration Bank File into the chosen memory location.   This creates a new Registration Bank File, with the name you just gave it, containing the current 8 registrations that are stored in the 8 registration memory buttons.  (You do not have to have something stored in all 8 buttons.  You can save a registration file with only one of the buttons containing data.).
    
    
11. To name the 8 individual Registrations contained in the Registration Bank File you just saved, do the following:
    
    
1. Press the [8A] (EDIT) button.
2. Press the [1B] (NAME) button.
3. Use the [A] - [D] and [F] - [I] buttons to select the desired Registration button title.
4. Press the [7B] (OK) button.
5. Use the [1] - [8] toggle buttons under the screen to name the Registration button title.
6. Press the [8A] (OK) button to store the name.  You can repeat steps (c)-(f) to name all 8 registration buttons.
7. Press the [8B] button to return to the main REGISTRATION BANK screen.
8. Press the [EXIT] button to return to the MAIN screen.

Loading Registrations:

NOTE: The REGISTRATION MEMORY button settings are cleared whenever the unit is turned OFF on the PSR-2000/1000. To load Registrations back in after the unit has been turned ON, the following procedure must be performed.

1. From the MAIN screen, press the [J] (REGISTRATION BANK) button.
   
   
2. Use the [BACK] and [NEXT] buttons to select USER or FLOPPY DISK memory area.  You can load a registration memory file that you stored in USER memory or one that you stored on a floppy disk.
   
   
3. Select the desired Registration Bank File:
   
   
1. If Folders were first created, use the [A] - [J] buttons to select the desired Folder, then the desired Registration Bank File.
2. If Folders were not created, use the [A] - [J] buttons to directly select the desired Registration Bank File.
   
   
4. Press the [Exit] button to return to the MAIN screen.  Your selected registration file is now loaded and the name should show in the REGISTRATION FILE window next to the [J] button.
   
   
5. The 8 Registration Memory buttons will now call up the Registrations that are saved in the selected Registration Bank file.
   
   

NOTE 1: if you want to load a different registration bank file you saved, just repeat steps 3 and 4.

NOTE 2: if you modified your registration bank file in any way, and you go to load another registration bank file, the PSR-2000 will warn you that the current registration bank has been changed and give you an opportunity to SAVE it before replacing it with a different one.  If you want to save your modifications, select the YES answer and save your modified file.  If you don't want to keep the modifications, just select the NO answer and continue on to pick your new registration file.
