Saving and Loading Song Data

<Quick Troubleshooting>

If you are stuck in one of the following situations, refer to the explanations below for corrective actions.

#The FD-8 displays the following during the save operation using a SCSI backup drive:

Flashing

44.1kHz

SETUP

	SURE ?
	SYNC OUT		DRIVE
	CLK		IDE

	AUTO		A.PUNCH

The backup disk contains some data and does not have enough free space to record new data. The FD-8 is ask- ing you whether or not the existing data should be de- leted. Take one of the following actions:

* If you wish to delete the existing data:

Press the EXECUTE/YES key twice. Pressing the key once causes [Del. ALL ?] and [SURE ?] to flash, and pressing it again deletes the existing data so that you will be able to continue the save operation.

* If you do not wish to delete the existing data:

Turn the JOG dial to display [Eject], then press the EX- ECUTE/YES key. The disk will be ejected. Insert another backup disk in the drive.

#When you inserted a SCSI backup disk into the backup drive to save data, the following messages appeared in turn and the disk was ejected.

44.1kHz

SETUP

The FD-8 recognizes that the backup disk cannot be used in its current condition. There are two reasons for this.

*You inserted a disk that was used for the current drive.

*The disk’s recording mode differs from that of the data to save or load.

For example, the disk used to save or load data in Mas- tering mode is inserted to save data in Normal mode. That is, you tried to use a disk (that was once used to save or load data in a particular recording mode) to save data in a different recording mode.

Current drive							Backup drive

							data recorded in Normal
							mode
							mode
			load
Current drive							Backup drive
			save
			save				disk used to save/load data
disk in Mastering mode							disk used to save/load data
							in Normal mode

To be able to use the ejected disk, you need to re-format it as described below.

*Quit SETUP mode and return to the Time Base display of the current disk, then insert the disk in the backup drive.

*Select the [Bk Format ?] menu in SETUP mode and re- format the backup disk.
