Correcting dates on quick recordings...

[Digital Gee]

I've just noticed that my SX900 is using a very old date when I make a quick recording on my thumb drive. It shows the correct date when I add styles acquired on the web but when I make a recording it's dated 2019. How do I fix this? 

Also, is there a way to delete a recording from my thumb drive while it's still in the Yamaha?

Same issue on my psrs775.  Good luck to us.

Hi Digital Gee,

Please read page 128 ("Making the Time Settings") in the SX900 Reference Manual (file version "b0" for Firmware version 1.10).

If you don't have the manuals for the new version 1.10 yet, you can download them here:

When the SX900 is connected to the local Wi-Fi router via the (optional) Yamaha USB Wi-Fi adapter "UD-WL01" in "Infrastructure Mode", the date/time are set automatically.

Originally, as far as I know, the "Time" display was only available when there was a Wi-Fi connection to the local router. This may have changed in the meantime. Please try whether the "Time" item is displayed in the menu even without an existing Wi-Fi connection.

Note: If the instrument is not connected to the mains for several days, it may "forget" the date/time setting. This is because the internal clock has no battery, but is powered by a so-called "super capacitor".

... Also, is there a way to delete a recording from my thumb drive while it's still in the Yamaha?

You may not be able to delete the wave file currently loaded in the SX900 Audio Player. Then simply load ANOTHER Audio file, then you should definitely be able to delete the previous one.


Best regards,
Chris
