Saving to and STEP13 loading from DAT
This section explains how song data can be backed up to a DAT recorder, and then restored from the DAT recorder.
Korg will take no responsibility for any loss of data which may result from the inability to backup/ restore correctly.
Backup to a DAT recorder is limited to the amount of data that will fit on a single 120 minute tape.
It is not possible to backup to a digital audio device other than a DAT recorder (e.g., MD recorder, DCC recorder or ADAT).
Be sure that the audio equipment connected to the DAT recorder has been turned down to the mini- mum volume, so that the sound from the DAT recorder is not output from speakers or head- phones. If you playback the DAT with the volume raised, your speakers or hearing may be damaged.
