By default, ANYTIME ATX4 and AURES AR2 instruments will select the "SK-EX Concert Grand Piano | Classic" sound when the instrument is turned on.  However, since v1.1.4 of the PianoRemote app, it is possible to save settings directly to the instrument's memory, allowing the player's preferred configuration to be selected automatically when the instrument is turned on.

This FAQ article explains the procedure to save settings to the ATX4/AR2 instrument's memory, as well as how to reset this memory back to the factory default configuration.

For a list of the settings stored to memory, please refer to this document: ATX4/AR2 'Save settings to Piano' list.

 

Saving settings to the AR2/ATX4 instrument's memory

1. First, visit the PianoRemote page on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and ensure that the latest version of the app is installed.

 

2. From the Piano or Sounds tab, select the preferred piano type/variation, then open the editor window and make any Virtual Technician etc. adjustments as desired (e.g. "SK-EX Competition Grand Piano | Romantic", Dynamic Voicing type, etc.)

 

2. Close the editor window, tap the top right Menu button, then tap "User Data".

 

3. From the "User Data" menu, in the "Save settings to Piano" item, tap "Save", then "Save" again to save the current configuration to the instrument's memory as the preferred default power-on settings.

 

4. Turn the instrument off and on.  When the piano restarts, the saved configuration should be selected automatically.

 

Restoring the factory default settings

1. From the "User Data" menu, in the "Factory Reset" item, tap "RESET", then "OK" to restore the instrument's memory to the factory default configuration.

 

2. Turn the instrument off and on.  When the piano restarts, the factory default "SK-EX Concert Grand Piano | Classic" sound should be selected automatically.
