Possible error messages
In certain cases, an error message may be
displayed instead of the confirmation. Here
is what they mean and how to solve the
problem:
Disk Protect
You forgot to switch
off the disk’s Write protection. Press the
EJECT button of the disk drive, remove the
floppy and close the tab, insert the disk
again and press
[VALUE]
.
Disk Full
The remaining disk capac-
ity does not allow to save your data to this
disk.
Same Name on FD
The name you
assigned to the data already exists on the
floppy disk you inserted. If you press
[TRACK]
to continue, the file on disk will be
overwritten (and the corresponding data
will be erased). Press
[TEMPO]
(“Skip”) to
return to the previous page. Either insert
another floppy disk, or enter another name
for the file you want to save. Then, press the
[VALUE]
knob again.
Loading songs from a floppy disk
Here is a function that allows you to load a
song from floppy disk into the MR-200’s
RAM area. Doing so allows you to add new
parts to it. Do not forget to save such songs
when you are done.
A
Stop playback and insert a disk into the
drive.
The disk’s metal shutter must point towards
the drive and the disk label must be visible.
B
Press the
[DISK]
button and use PAGE
[√][®]
to select the following parameter:
C
Use the
[VALUE]
knob to select the song you
wish to load.
D
Press the
[VALUE]
knob to load the song.
E
Press
[DISK]
to leave this mode.
Deleting songs on a floppy disk
The Delete function allows you to erase
songs from the inserted floppy disk. This
may be necessary to make room for new files
(e.g. when the “Disk Full” message appears).
Be careful, though, to only delete files you
are absolutely (positively) sure you will
never need again. Once a file has been
deleted, it is gone forever.
As a rule, you should first make a backup
copy of your song by saving it to another
floppy disk (or your computer). After all,
files really only become indispensable once
they are no longer available…
A
Insert a disk into the drive.
Every floppy contains a square tab that
allows you to “close” a little window. With
the tab in that position, you can change the
disk’s content. Do not forget to write-enable
the disk by closing this little window prior
to inserting the floppy disk.
B
Press the
[DISK]
button and use PAGE
[√][®]
to select the following parameter:
C
Use the
[VALUE]
knob to select the song you
want to delete.
D
Press the
[VALUE]
knob.
The display now responds with:
