DM PRO REFERENCE MANUAL 1 2 9

If you have a memory card inserted, you can also choose to save individual Drums

and Drumkits to the memory card instead of to the User Bank. Memory cards can

contain multiple banks. To save your Drum or Drumkit to a memory card, move the

cursor beneath the Bank name and turn the Value encoder:

Save Drum to:

Card1 000

A DM Pro rewritable Bank is structured the same way whether it is the Internal Bank

(User) or a Card Bank (Card). All rewritable DM Pro Banks consist of 128 Drums and

64 Drumkits.

The COPY SOUND Command

The Copy Sound Command is a Drum Edit Mode utility that allows you to Copy the

Parameter Values of one Sound in Drum Edit Mode into the Parameter Values of

another Sound, essentially creating a duplicate of that Sound into a second location.

Once in the Global Store Function, press [CURSOR>] to advance to the Copy Sound

Command.

You can select both the source and the destination Sound with complete flexibility.

To use the Copy Command, press [CURSOR>] until the display reads

COPY SOUND ...

and then set your desired Copy sources and destinations by moving the cursor

beneath each Value and setting it with the Value encoder:

COPY SOUND 1 TO

SOUND 2 (STR)

Once you have made your selection, press [STORE] to initiate the Copy.

Note that you can also copy the Sound from a Drum other than the current Drum

into one of the current Drum’s Sounds by adjusting the Value for the Copy

source.

The following example copies Sound 2 from Drum 015 in the User bank into Sound 2

of the Drum in the Edit buffer:

COPY PROG015 TO

SOUND 2 (STR)

CAUTION! This Command will overwrite the destination Sound in

the edit buffer and erase all of its previous Parameter Values. Be

certain of your destination before initiating the Copy Command.

Note that within a Drum, the Copy Command only makes changes to the edit

buffer of a Sound and does not overwrite the Drum. You must Store the edited Drum

in order to preserve your changes. However, when copying Sounds

between

Drums, the change is automatically stored.
