Memory in Global mode
When the power is turned on, the Global mode data is 
called from internal memory into the Global mode 
memory area. Then when you modify the parameters 
in Global mode, the data in the memory area will be 
modified. If you wish to save this modified data in 
internal memory, you must Write it.
When you write this data, the data in the memory area 
is written into the global settings.
If you turn off the power without writing, the modified 
data in the memory area will be lost.
Memory protect
To prevent Programs, Combinations, Songs, Drum 
Kits, and User Arpeggio Patterns from being 
overwritten accidentally, the M50 provides a Memory 
Protect setting that prohibits writing to memory.
Before you save edited data or load data from media, 
use the following procedure to turn the memory 
protect off (uncheck the appropriate check box).
You must also turn memory protect off before loading 
the above data from media or via a MIDI data dump, 
or before recording in Sequencer mode.
1. Press the MODE GLOBAL switch to enter Global 
mode.
2. Access the Global P0: Basic Setup– Basic page.
3. Press the “Memory Protect” check box for the type 
of data you wish to write to internal memory, so 
that the box is unchecked.
