Topic: Help with usb

[DavidGall]

Hi all, wonder if any of you lovely people can help jog my memory please?
I have purchased a usb stick containing loads of new styles, but I have forgotten how to save into registration bank! I have found a few that I would like to save in but am wary of doing it, as I have lost stuff previously. I have the Genos keyboard.
Any help would be appreciated

Thank you for taking the time to reply, however, the style I wanted to save is on a usb stick?

[Stijn]

You can copy the Styles from the USB to the USER.

To add to Stijn's comment - the User drive is the same as a C drive on a PC. Yamaha uses some oddball terminology at times.

Welcome aboard, David!

It is always best to save any styles you are going to use on registrations into a folder on your user section. Then make sure you load the style from this folder before linking it to your registration. You can always add other styles at a latter date but make sure you never move this folder.

Thanks for all your help, we have managed to unfuzz my brain and it has worked!

It's simple really The user drive takes the place of the hard drive.

[Lee Batchelor]

Right, Eileen.

Question: Did the Tyros series used spinning disk drives, whereas the Genos' primary User drive is an SSD?

Yes.

Actually ‘user drive’ seems a more meaningful name to me than either hard drive or C drive. Yamaha got that right.

Thanks, Fred.

Mike, you're probably right. The Genos is a keyboard first, driven by computer technology. "User drive" feels right. They should document it however as, "User drive, which is the same as a primary drive in a computer." The fact they didn't, forces users to fill in the blanks. That's something you NEVER want to do when creating manuals. It's irresponsible and can actually kill.
