To use the Disk mode: ..........................................................
1.
Enter the Disk mode by pressing d.
2.
Press the appropriate function button (! - %) to
call up the desired operation: Save (!), Load
(@), Delete (#), Rename ($), or Format
(%).
3.
Select the type of data you wish to save, load, delete
or rename.
Do this by highlighting the data type, or entering the
corresponding number directly. (This is unnecessary for
the Format operation, which simply formats a blank
disk.) The following chart describes the data types.
Song SMF Range: 01 — 10
File Extension: .MID
This comprises a single specified song in the
Standard MIDI File format. The Standard MIDI
File format is widely used by computer music
software, sequencers, and synthesizers with
built-in sequencers. This option provides data
compatibility with such devices. Voice, output
select, and play effect data is not saved with an
SMF file. The tempo data is saved.
Song SMF Range: 01 — 10
+ Multi File Extension: .MID
(Save only) This comprises a single specified song in the
Standard MIDI File format, and includes the
data of the Multi parameters. The track
settings memorized as part of the Multi data
are automatically converted into control change
or system exclusive data (according to the XG
format), then inserted with an appropriate
number of measures at the beginning of the
Song, before saving. Also, when MIDI data is
inserted, the necessary number of measures
are added to the beginning of the Song.

This comprises all song, phrase, user pattern,
user Voice, and chain data.

Song ESEQ Range: 01 — 10
File Extension: .ESQ
This comprises a single specified Song in the
ESEQ format. The ESEQ format is used by
some sequencers and synthesizers with built-
in sequencers. This option provides data
compatibility with such devices. Voice, output
select, and play effect data is not saved with
an ESEQ file. The tempo data is saved.

as listed below.
● Save — All Data, All User Voice, Phrase, Style, Song,

using/executing each of the specific operations.
To exit from the Disk mode — or to cancel an operation

NOTE: The file extensions listed in the chart are used by the
QS300 operating system to identify and organize the different
types of data. When a file of each type is saved, the QS300
automatically assigns an appropriate file extension to the end
of the file name. (When saving Songs in the Song ESEQ,
Song SMF, and Song SMF + Multi, the file extension can be
changed.)
