NOTE
About user licenses
User license data is associated with a sound pack (.sdz).
When a sound pack is imported into the MC-101 unit, the MC-101 can use only
sound packs that were downloaded by that user in accordance with the user
license data. At this time, the message
“Install License”
appears, confirming
wheather or not you install license data in the unit. (This message appears only
the first time.)
Sound packs whose user license data is different cannot be used. If you attempt
to install a sound pack that has different user license information, the message
“License Error”
appears.
If you want to delete the user license data in the unit, for example if you are
selling the unit, go to the UTILITY MENU and execute FACTORY RESET.
When you execute FACTORY RESET, the system settings return to their factory-
set state.
Error Messages Added
Message
Explanation/Action
Format Error
This appears if the selected sound file is not compatible with the MC-101,
or if the file is damaged.
Check the models that are listed as compatible for the file you
downloaded, and try downloading again.
License Error
This appears if the selected sound file is associated with a different user
license.
To install, you must either obtain a file that has the same user license as
the currently-installed sound file, or initialize the user license.
To initialize the user license information, go to the UTILITY MENU and
execute FACTORY RESET.
When you execute FACTORY RESET, the system settings return to their
factory-set state.
