Hi Donny
I do both .
The save all is great because it allows you to load back in ,individual items.
Just say something goes wrong with the song book, you delete something you didn't mean to. From save all , you can just load songbook data, without loading back the rest of the files.

You can't do that with back-up .

Be on the safe side and do both.

I always name mine to make sure I can tell which is the latest. I keep copies going back 2 to 3 versions and delete the oldest as I go.
At the moment whilst you're still getting back into the swing of things, you can't have too many.

I don't back up or save all everyday, just when I've done work on various items.

For instance , if all I have done for the day is modify or organise some styles.
I just do a save of the styles as I go.
I accidentally lost a whole week of style editing on my pa800. I hadn't saved the bank, said yes to the wrong popup and accidentally deleted the bank.

Just be careful with that direct function, I accidently hi lighted the whole bank on the usb stick instead of an individual style, saw them disappearing in front if my eyes. Fortunately I had the USB stick backed up.


Everybody has their own way of saving stuff.
