IMPORTANT NOTES
Handling Hard Disks
Important Performance and Image Data
811
• Once a hard disk fails to function normally, all data that has been
stored on it could be destroyed.
All hard disks eventually wear out.
We recommend that you
consider the hard disk not as a permanent storage site, but as a
place to store data temporarily. We also recommend that you
back up important performance and image data that cannot be
recorded again onto the external media that is supported by your
device. For instructions on how to make such backups, refer to
the owner’s manual for your device.
Note that Roland assumes no liability whatsoever, including
monetary compensation, for the loss of any recorded content in
the event of the malfunction of, or physical damage to the hard
disk, or for any direct or incidental damages resulting from the
loss of such data.
Precautions Regarding Setup and Use
812
• Certain hard disk setup procedures and usage conditions may
result in the corruption of recorded data, malfunctioning, or
physical damage to the disk, so be sure to observe the following
precautions.
• Do not subject the hard disk to vibration or shock, especially
while the unit is in operation.
• Do not set up the unit in any location where it may be affected
by vibration from external sources, or on any surface that is
not stable and level.
• If the device includes a cooling fan, ensure that the fan and
the side panel air vents remain unobstructed.
• Do not leave the unit in any environment subject to temper-
ature extremes; for example, in a closed automobile in
summer or outdoors during winter.
• Do not use the unit in conditions of high temperature and
humidity or in any location subject to rapid temperature
changes.
• Do not unplug the power cord or switch off any circuit
breakers in the circuit to which the unit is connected while the
power is turned on.
• Do not move the unit while the power is turned on or
immediately after turning off the power. When transporting
the unit, first turn off the power and confirm that the display
screen has gone off, disconnect the power plug, then wait at
least two minutes before moving the device.
Emergency Procedures
813
*
The following procedures are to be used as emergency measures
only, and are not recommended for normal operation.
• If the device fails to respond to operational commands or does
not complete operations, turn off the power. If the power does
not shut off following normal shutdown procedures, disconnect
the power plug.
If the unit does not operate normally when the power is turned
on again, it may mean that the hard disk has been damaged. In
such instances, consult your dealer or the nearest Roland Service
Center. Note, however, that it may not be possible to recover any
data from the hard disk once it has been lost.
If your device features drive check capabilities, use the drive
check function to regularly confirm that there are no problems,
even when the device is operating normally.
For more detailed information on the shutdown and drive check
procedures, refer to the Owner’s Manual.
Copyright
851
• Unauthorized recording, distribution, sale, lending, public
performance, broadcasting, or the like, in whole or in part, of a
work (musical composition, video, broadcast, public perfor-
mance, or the like) whose copyright is held by a third party is
prohibited by law.
853
• Do not use this unit for purposes that could infringe on a
copyright held by a third party. We assume no responsibility
whatsoever with regard to any infringements of third-party
copyrights arising through your use of this unit.
852a revised
• When exchanging video signals between the PR-50 and external
devices via a digital connection, you can record without the
limitations imposed by CGMS (Copy Generation Management
System). This is because the PR-50 is designed wholly for the
purpose of creating video images, with no restrictions on creating
and working with material (such as videos you create yourself) in
a manner that does not infringe on another's copyright (CGMS is
a function that limits copying through digital connections).
854 revised
• Even if the intended purpose is solely private, personal
enjoyment (personal use), the unauthorized reproduction of any
third-party copyrighted works, which circumvents CGMS or
other technologies, is a violation of copyright and is prohibited by
law.
855 revised
• Reproductions of works not protected by technological means, or
reproductions made in conformance with CGMS are permitted,
as long as the intended use is private, personal enjoyment.
Copyrights on material data
981a
• The copyrights for the material data supplied with the PR-50 are
held by the creators of the materials. For more details, refer to the
separate sheet “ARTBEATS END USER LICENSE
AGREEMENT.”
985
• The explanations in this manual include illustrations that depict
what should typically be shown by the display. Note, however,
that your unit may incorporate a newer, enhanced version of the
system (material names, etc.), so what you actually see in the
display may not always match what appears in the manual.
