Data that you exported to your computer or that is downloaded from Roland’s Axial website can be loaded into the JD-Xi as follows.
1. Using a USB cable, connect the JD-Xi to your computer.
2. While holding down the ENTER button, power-on the JD-Xi. The screen will display “Extra Bank...,” and an “EXTRA” folder opens in the screen of your computer. In the “EXTRA” folder you’ll see eight folders, from “S” to “Z.”
3. Open the folder (“S”–“Z”) in which you want to place the data.
4. Into the opened folder, copy the .BIN file that you want to load into the JD-Xi.
5. On your computer, perform the appropriate operation to disconnect (unmount) the JD-Xi. The data will start being loaded.
Note: Never turn off the JD-Xi’s power while data is being loaded.
MEMO
- In some cases, data loading might not proceed when you disconnect (unmount) the JD-Xi. If this occurs, unmount the connection from your computer, and then press the JD-Xi’s [Exit] button.
- If you are using a Mac, you must press the JD-Xi’s [Exit] button after you unmount the connection.
When the operation is completed, the screen will display “Completed.
Turn off power.” Power off the JD-Xi, then back on again.
As you switch banks, you can now select the bank containing the added data. For example if you put the data in folder “S,” you’ll be able to select the “S” bank.
MEMO
- Although you can place multiple files in a single folder, only one file can be loaded.
- If you added a large number of programs, there may be cases in which panel operations are less responsive immediately after you start up the JD-Xi.
- If the message “Insufficient free area.” appears on your computer screen, no further files can be added, and you will need to delete unneeded files.
- Do not place any files other than BIN format files in the “EXTRA” folder.
As a safeguard against possible damage to the data in the “EXTRA” folder, we recommend that you save a backup of the BIN files on your computer.
Note: This feature was added in system update version 1.10. You can download the latest system update for the JD-Xi here if needed.
