Naming the copied song
You can assign a song name of up to sixteen characters. 1) To assign a new name to the copied song, use the cursor up/down buttons to select �Song Name�. 2) Press the ENTER/OK button to access the renaming screen. 3) Use the cursor left/right buttons to select the position at which you want to change the character, and use the cursor up/down buttons to choose a character. Alternatively, you can use the channel buttons to enter numerals directly instead of using the cursor up/down buttons. Press the MENU button to switch between uppercase and lowercase characters. Use the JUMP buttons to delete (DEL) or insert (INS) characters.
3) Press the ENTER/OK button once again. The screen will indicate �Save Now: Working...�, and when saving is complete, the indication will change to �Save Now: Completed�. 4) Press the ENTER/OK button to return to the Menu screen.
The length of time taken by this operation until the Completed indication appears will be proportionate to the length of the song.
1-5. Protecting a song
You can protect a song so that it will not be accidentally overwritten or deleted. If the song is protected (protect On), you won�t be able to switch to Record by pressing the MASTER button or the channel buttons when the REC/PLAY button is on. Nor will you be able to rewrite any of the parameters of that song. The song will automatically be saved when you protect it. Follow the same procedure to defeat protection (i.e., to turn protect off).
You can change the protect setting only for the currently selected song.
1) Press the MENU button to access the Menu screen. 4) If you are satis�ed with the name you edited, press the ENTER/OK button to con�rm the change and return to the Copy Song screen. If you decide not to make the change, press the EXIT/ CANCEL button. You can use uppercase characters A�Z, lowercase characters a�z, numerals 0�9, space, and the following symbols. 2) Use the cursor up/down buttons to select �2. SONG,� and use the cursor left/right buttons to select �Protect�. Alternatively, you can press channel button �2� to select �2. SONG� instead of using the cursor up/down buttons. 3) Press the ENTER/OK button to access the Protect screen. If you decide not to change the Protect setting, press the EXIT/CANCEL button to return to the Menu screen.

If you want to edit the name after copying the song, perform the Rename operation in �2: Song� (�p.21).
1-4. Saving a song
Since the D888 automatically saves song data and parameters when you perform the shut-down operation or when you select a song, it is not absolutely necessary for you to save manually. However if the power should be interrupted by a power failure or other accident, the data that has been recorded or edited since the most recent power-on (or since a song was last selected) will be lost. We recommend that you use this command to save the data periodically after recording or editing for an extended period, or if you are using the D888 in an environment where the power supply is unreliable.
The song will also be saved automatically when you press the USB button to enter USB mode.
4) If the song is not currently protected, the screen will indicate �Protect�ON: Are you sure?� If the song is currently protected, the screen will indicate �Protect�OFF: Are you sure?� 5) Press the ENTER/OK button once again. The screen will indicate �Protect Song: Working...�, and when the setting has been made, the indication will change to �Protect Song: Completed�. 6) Press the ENTER/OK button to return to the Menu screen. A padlock symbol is displayed beside the song name for protected songs.
1) Use the cursor up/down buttons to select �2. SONG,� and use the cursor left/right buttons to select �Save Now�. Alternatively, you can press channel button �2� to select �2. SONG� instead of using the cursor up/down buttons.
2) Press the ENTER/OK button, and the screen will ask �Save Now: Are you sure?� If you decide not to save the song, press the EXIT/CANCEL button to return to the Menu screen.
