Protecting A Song - Yamaha AW2816 Owner's Manual

A song can be protected to preserve its contents. If a
song is protected, you will not be able to edit or
record tracks, set locate points, or delete the song, etc.
We recommend that when you complete a song, you
protect it so that it will not be accidentally modified
or erased.
1
Load the song that you want to protect as
the current song.
2
Press the [SONG] key
The SONG screen/Setting page will appear.
3
Move the cursor to the PROTECT area, and
press the [ENTER] key.
The button will change to ON, and the current
song will be protected.
The current song is now protected. However if you
turn off the power or load another song without sav-
ing the current song, its protect setting will be
defeated. In order to finalize the protect setting for
the current song, you must save it.

Save the current song.
The protect setting will be finalized for the cur-
rent song, and the following operations will be
prohibited.
• Deleting or optimizing the song
