The E-A7 uses "User Programs" (UPG) to save the following settings:
- Style
- Style setup information (intro and ending status, sync start, etc.)
- Tone Data
- Mixer Settings
For details, please refer to "User Program (UPG)" in the E-A7 Reference Manual.
This allows you to create lists of setups that can quickly be recalled as needed. Up to 100 UPGs that you create can be saved in a User Program Set (UPS). The E-A7 can load a Use Program Set when it starts up, so that you’ll always be able to use the User Program button to easily recall up to 100 UPGs. If you accumulate more than 100 UPGs, you can create a new UPS and save it in internal storage or external storage.
Selecting a User Program
Up to 100 UPGs can be stored in a UPS. These UPGs are organized by Bank and Number. There are ten banks, 1–10, and each bank contains numbers 1–10.
This means that you’ll recall a UPG by specifying it in the range from
1-1 through 10-10.
- Use the Bank -/+ buttons to switch banks (the UPG is not recalled until you enter the number).
- Use the UPG 1–10 buttons to enter the number (the UPG is recalled when you enter the number).
Saving Your Settings as a User Program
- Select a style or song, and make the desired settings. For example, you can assign a sound of your choice to the keyboard part, turn on the Intro 1 button, or change the User Program Edit settings.
- Press the WRITE button. The screen asks whether you want to overwrite. Choose “YES” to overwrite, or choose “No” to see the naming screen.
- Assign a name to the UPG that you’re saving.
- Use the function buttons to select “Exec.” This UPG is added to the end of the UPG list.
Memo
If the number of UPGs exceeds 100, a new UPS is created automatically. If you modify a Music Assistant UPG and then save, a new UPS is always created automatically.
