Deleting All Patterns Together
You can delete all patterns from the SP-303’s internal
memory or memory card in one operation.
* When this procedure is carried out on a memory card, the
memory card’s backup area (refer to p. 48) is deleted at the
same time. So, please check the data carefully before deleting.

1. Press [PATTERN SELECT], and confirm that the
button has lit.
“Ptn” appears in the display.
* If already lit, there is no need to press the button.
* Take care to note that if [PATTERN SELECT] is not lit, the
SP-303 will then proceed with deletion of the sample (p. 34).
2. While holding down [CANCEL], press [DEL].
“dAL” (Delete ALL) appears in the display.
[DEL] lights up, and the bank buttons blink.
3. Select the memory to be cleared.
If deleting the patterns in the internal memory, press
BANK [A] or [B]; if deleting the patterns on a memory
card, press BANK [C] or [D].
When BANK [A] or [B] is pressed, both [A] and [B] light
up. When BANK [C] or [D] is pressed, both [C] and [D]
light up.
[DEL] changes to a blinking light.
* If no memory card is inserted, then pressing BANK [C] or [D]
creates no response.
* If you decide not to delete, press [CANCEL].
4. Press [DEL].
[DEL] lights up, and the dots in the display blink. The
deletion is complete when the dots stop blinking and
remain off.
Never turn off the power while the dots are blinking.
This may result in corruption not only of the pattern
currently being deleted, but may also damage other
patterns, as well as the memory card.
Changing the Assignment of
Patterns to the Pads
You can change the assignment of patterns to the pads by
exchanging the patterns on two different pads.
You can switch between a pad to which a pattern has already
been recorded and a pad to which no pattern has been
assigned.

1. Press [PATTERN SELECT], and confirm that the
button has lit.
“Ptn” appears in the display.
* Take care to note that if [PATTERN SELECT] is not lit, the
samples will then be switched (p. 34).
2. While holding down [DEL], press [REC].
[DEL] and [REC] light up, and “CHG” appears in the
display.
The pads to which the patterns are assigned then blink.
3. Press the BANK button and pad for one of the patterns
to be exchanged.
The pad lights up.
4. Press the BANK button and pad for the other pattern to
be exchanged.
The pad lights up, and [REC] blinks.
5. Press [REC].
[DEL] and [REC] light, and the dots in the display blink.
The exchange is complete when the dots stop blinking
and remain off.
* If insufficient free space is available when exchanging patterns
between the SP-303’s memory and a memory card, “FuL” is
displayed, and the exchange cannot be carried out. Note that
sufficient memory is needed particularly on the memory card.
Never turn off the power while the dots are blinking.
This may result in corruption not only of the patterns
currently being exchanged, but may also damage other
patterns as well as the memory card.
