CASSETTE OPERATIONS
Although the RX15 has a considerable amount of internal
storage capacity, a cassette interface has been provided
to facilitate storage of an unlimited number of your
original patterns and songs. The RX15 cassette save and
load operations save and load the entire RX15 memory
contents at once-all patterns and songs, Remember
that when you perform a load operation the entire RX15
memory is re-written, erasing any data it might contain.
We recommend that you use a cassette player designed
specifically for personal computer data storage. If such a
cassette deck is not available, however, use the highest
quality unit at your disposal. If loading problems are
encountered, try adjusting the output level control of the
cassette player for optimum results. If the cassette
player used has tone controls, these may need to be
adjusted as well to facilitate loading of the data. In some
cases it may also be necessary to clean and
demagnetize the cassette deck’s reproduction heads.
Before you begin a cassette operation, check that your
cassette recorder is properly connected to the RX15
CASSETTE IN and OUT terminals (see
“CONNECTIONS” section).
Save/Verify
The SAVE/VERIFY button permits access to two
functions: 1) Save actually stores the data in the RX15
memory onto cassette tape, and 2) Verify automatically
compares the data written onto the cassette with that in
the RX15 memory in order to confirm that the data has
been properly saved.
To begin any cassette operation, first enter the cassette
control mode by pressing the CASSETTE button while
holding the FUNCTION button. The LCD panel will read
“CASSETTE CONTROL” indicating that the cassette
control mode is active. To save the RX15 memory
contents, then press the SAVE/VERIFY button. The LCD
panel will confirm your intention to save to tape with
“SAVE TO TAPE?”. Press the + 1/YES button to
continue. The LCD panel will respond with “SAVE
READY?”. This is your cue to start the cassette recorder
running in the record mode. Once you’ve started the
recorder, press the + 1/YES button and the actual save
operation will begin. While the data is being saved the
LCD panel will read “SAVE EXECUTING”. After about 20
seconds, when the save operation has finished, the
display will change to “VERIFY TAPE?", asking you if
you would like to verify that the save operation was
successful (we recommend that you do). At this point
you should stop the cassette recorder. If you respond to
the “VERIFY TAPE?” prompt with - 1/NO, the RX15 will
return to the CASSETTE CONTROL mode, from which
you can then exit by pressing the CASSETTE button. If
you do wish to verify the tape, rewind the cassette to the
beginning of the file just saved and press the +1/YES
button in response to the “VERIFY TAPE?” prompt. The
21
LCD panel will respond with “VERIFY READY?“. Press
the + 1/YES button and start the cassette recorder in
the playback mode. While the RX15 compares the
contents of its memory to the data saved on the tape,
the LCD panel will read “VERIFY EXECUTING”. Verify
takes about 20 seconds. If no data errors are
encountered, the LCD panel will read “VERIFY OK”. The
cassette recorder can be stopped at this point. If an
error is encountered, however, the display will read
“VERIFY ERROR”. If this happens, return to the cassette
control mode by pressing the CASSETTE button and try
saving the data again. The SAVE/VERIFY, LOAD,
+1/YES or –1 /NO buttons can also be used to return to
the cassette control mode.
