Save/Load of Song data
With an optional CD-RW drive, you can use not only CD-RW discs but also CD-R discs. Note that
CD-R discs has some restrictions as shown below.
<Care and handling of CD-RW/CD-R discs>
<About data writing and reading speeds for data save/load>
The writing and reading speeds for data save and load of the VF80 are automatically set as below.
• Writing speed: according to a CD-RW drive used, however the maximum speed is 8 times.
• Reading speed: according to a CD-RW drive used.
The writing speed depends on a CD-RW drive but it is limited to 8 times.
For save/load of the VF80 data, use discs that can be written at 4 times or higher speed. Do not use
discs that only can be written at real-time or twice speed.
<Note>
A CD-RW/CD-R disc on which VF80 data is recorded can only be played by Fostex machines. Do not
play it by non-Fostex devices. The drive or system used may be damaged.
However, a CD-RW/CD-R disc with audio CD format created by the Fostex machine can be played by
general machines such as audio CD players.
(If an audio CD is made using a CD-RW disc, it can be played
back only by a player that supports CD-RW playback. You cannot playback such a disc by a conventional CD
player that does not support CD-RW playback.)
You can save (record) data to a disc as many times
required. Note that when saving new data, it is recorded
after the previously recorded data is erased. In other
words, every time you save new data, all disc data is
rewritten. (See “Saving data” described later.)
You can save (record) data to a disc only once.
You cannot save data to a recorded disc. You can, of
course, load data as many times as required.
