fig.05-600d
5. Move the cursor to the type of data you want to back up and press [F1]
(SELECT).
The data will selected for backup.
fig.05-610d
A number of types of data can be selected in this way for backup, and an
asterisk (*) will be displayed for each selected type. To cancel a selection,
simply press [F1] once again.
Data that can be backed up:
Effects/Rhythm:
• Insert Effects User Patches
• Vocal Tool Box User Patches
• Mastering User Kit User Patches
• Speaker Modeling User Patches
• User Rhythm Arrangement
• User drum pattern
• User bass pattern
The data described above will all be saved.
Loop Phrase:
User loop phrases will all be saved.
If you would like to back up all such data on the hard disk in a single
operation, press [F2] (ALL). All data types will be selected for backup.
To cancel this selection, press [F2] once again. This deselects all data
types.
6. When you have selected all of the data you want to back up, press [F3]
(GO).
The message “Write Speed?” will appear.
fig.05-560d
7. Use the TIME/VALUE dial to set the write speed.
8. Press [ENTER/YES].

message “Complete!” appears, it indicates that the backup has been
successfully completed.
• The range of available write speeds can sometimes be limited by the type
of media being used. In such a case, the BR-1200CD will allow you to
select only the supported speeds.
• If an error occurs, try changing the write speed and then carry out the
writing process over again.
• The actual time required to complete writing to a disc will be longer than
the time calculated from the write speed. The data is converted into CD
format during the writing process, and this accounts for the extra time
requirement.

is not accidentally overwritten in this way.
Saving the Entire Contents of the
Hard Disk to a CD-R/RW Disc
(HDD Backup)
The BR-1200CD allows you to back up all of the data on the internal hard disk onto
CD-R/RW discs, regardless of the type of data or the song in which it is used. Data
that’s been backed up this way can later be recovered whenever needed.
Note, however, that this type of backup is limited to the data contained in the
currently selected drive or partition. If you would also like to back up data
from another drive or partition, you will need to change the current drive first.
Note also that recovered data will be stored on the currently selected drive.
1. Insert an empty CD-R/RW disc into the BR-1200CD’s CD-R/RW drive.
