Using Performances Your CP5 or CP50 can store Performances in three main memory areas - namely, Preset Performance memory, User Performance memory, and an External Performance memory. The specific roles of each of these memory areas are described below.  Preset Performance Memory Accessed using the [PRE] button, the Preset Performance memory is used to hold the Performances that come readymade with your CP5 or CP50. This memory area comprises three individual memory banks - PRE1, PRE2, and PRE3 - furthermore, four memory groups (A, B, C, and D) are contained within each memory bank, and each one of these groups can hold ten Performances.  User Performance Memory Accessed using the [USER] button, the User Performance memory is used to store original Performances that you have created. This memory area comprises three individual memory banks - USR1, USR2, and USR3 - furthermore, four memory groups (A, B, C, and D) are contained within each memory bank, and each one of these groups can hold ten Performances.  External Performance Memory Accessed using the [EXT] button, External Performance memories are read into your CP5 or CP50 from a USB flashmemory device. As with the User Performance memory, each External Performance memory can be used to save original Performances that you create. This memory area comprises three individual memory banks - EXT1, EXT2, and EXT3 - furthermore, four memory groups (A, B, C, and D) are contained within each memory bank, and each one of these groups can hold ten Performances. In order to use an External Performance memory stored on a USB flash-memory device, the device must be plugged into the CP5 or CP50, and the stage piano must have loaded the memory into its DRAM.
