Connecting External Devices Storing and Loading Digital Keyboard Memory Data You can transfer sampled sounds, recorded songs, and other data in Digital Keyboard memory to a computer for storage. You also can load standard MIDI file (SMF) data to the Digital Keyboard, which greatly expands the Song Bank songs available to you. A special Data Manager application is required in order to transfer data to and from the Digital Keyboard. Data Types Supported for Data Transfer The same types of data that you can store to or recall from a memory card (page E-56) can be transferred to and from the Digital Keyboard.
