Before using this unit
When you insert a card, the card indicator lights up while data is loading.
When upload is completed, the indicator turns off.
When using this unit, you can save data such as projects and photos to cards.
We recommend the use of a separately available Roland CompactFlash card (PM-
128-CF) with this unit.
The Roland CF card
• PM-128-CF (128 megabytes)
You can save projects and materials until the capacity of the card is reached.
The file names can consist of up to 32 characters.
When you save a material to a card, be sure to add an extension to the file name. For
more information about usable file formats, refer to
“Photos that can be used for
background clips”
(p. 52),
“Materials that can be used for front clips”
(p. 57),
“Sound materials that can be used for playback” (p. 63) , “MIDI data that can be
sent”
(p. 68) , and
“About files that can be used with this unit”
(p. 103).
When using a new card or one that has been used with a different type of unit, you
need to format the card before use.
Notes on formatting
Once formatted, all data that was on the card will be lost. Always check beforehand
to make sure that there is no data that you need on a card before you format it.
The formatting procedure
Card formatting is carried out from the FILE MANAGER screen.
For detailed instructions, refer to “Formatting the card” (p. 107).
Insertion
Be careful with the direction of insertion and make sure the appropriate side of the
card is facing upwards. Also, be sure to insert the card all the way in, to the end of
the slot. Never use force when inserting the card.
When removing
Hold the card straight while pulling it out from the slot.
Never eject while loading/saving/formatting a card.
Also, never power down or unplug the unit while loading/saving/formatting the
card. Such attempts may cause serious damage to the card.
