Internal Design of the CP1

Makeup of Performance Memory

The CP1 can store Performances in three main memory areas — namely, the Preset Performance memory, the 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 [PRESET] button, the Preset Performance memory is used to hold the Performance presets that

come ready-made with the CP1. Within this memory area, three individual memory banks — Preset A (PRE A), Preset B

(PRE B), and Preset C (PRE C) — each hold 16 Preset Performances. In order that they will always be available for use,

Preset Performances cannot be overwritten with other Performances that you have modified or created. As such, the

Preset Performance memory is read-only.

NOTE For a list of all Preset Performances, see the Data List booklet.

 User Performance Memory

Accessed using the [USER] button, the User Performance memory is used to store original Performances that you have

created. Within this memory area, three individual memory banks — User A (USR A), User B (USR B), and User C (USR

C) — each hold 16 User Performances. In the instrument’s initial condition, the User Performance memory contains

exactly the same content as the Preset Performance memory.

CAUTION

If you overwrite a Performance in the User Performance memory, it will be permanently deleted. You should take special care, therefore,

when selecting where to store newly-created Performances in order to avoid loosing irreplaceable data.

 External Performance Memory

Accessed using the [EXTERNAL] button, External Performance memories are stored on USB flash-memory devices. In

the same way as with the User Performance memory, each External Performance memory can be used to save original

Performances that you create. Within an External Performance memory, three individual memory banks — External A

(EXT A), External B (EXT B), and External C (EXT C) — each hold 16 Performances. Whenever a USB flash-memory

device containing an External Performance memory is plugged into the CP1, the entire memory is loaded into the

instrument’s DRAM so that its individual Performances may be played and edited.
