Over time, importing and deleting samples can fragment the TD-17's User Sample memory. This can reduce the number of samples that can be loaded. If you're experiencing any issues importing additional samples, or the TD-17 is producing a "User Sample Memory Full" message, optimizing the memory can help.
CAUTION: Be sure to perform a backup of your user data to an SD Card before Optimizing the User Sample memory. Also, any imported samples may be deleted, so be sure you have copies of them on your computer before proceeding with these Steps.
- Press the USER SAMPLE button.
- Press F2 (MENU).
- Cursor down to highlight "OPTIMIZE," and then press F3 ()ENTER).
- Press F3 again (EXECUTE).
- The Optimize process can take more than one hour to complete. Be sure not to turn off the power of the TD-17 during the process.
