Cautions when handling floppy disks

When handling floppy disks, please observe the following points. Data loss may occur if a floppy disk is handled improperly.

Floppy disk type and format

The TRITON STUDIO can use 2HD or 2DD 3.5 inch floppy disks.

Floppy disk handling

•Do not open the shutter of a floppy disk or touch the magnetic surface inside the disk. If the magnetic disk becomes soiled or scratched, it will no longer be possible to read the data.

•Never transport the TRITON STUDIO with a floppy disk in the disk drive. Vibration may cause the disk drive heads to scratch the floppy disk, making it unusable.

•Do not allow a floppy disk to be placed near a device that emits a magnetic field, such as a television, computer, computer display, speaker, or power supply transformer. This can erase data on the disk.

•Do not use or store floppy disks in locations of excessive temperature or humidity, in direct sunlight, or in dusty or dirty locations.

•Do not place objects on top of a floppy disk.

•While the disk drive is operating, do not attempt to remove the floppy disk, and do not subject the TRITON STUDIO to physical shock.

Floppy disk write protect

Floppy disks have a small write protect hole that can be used to prevent data from being erased or rewritten acci- dentally.

After saving data to disk, move the write protect tab so that the hole is uncovered. This will prohibit writing to the disk, and will prevent the data from being destroyed acci- dentally.

Inserting a floppy disk

With the label of the floppy disk facing upward, insert it into the disk drive. Press the disk inward until it clicks into place.

Malfunctions will occur if you use excessive force to insert the disk. Disks must be inserted gently, and straight in.

Removing a floppy disk

To remove a floppy disk, first make sure that the disk access indicator is dark. Then press the eject button and remove the disk.

If the disk does not come out when you press this button, do not attempt to remove the disk by force. Please contact your dealer.

Head cleaning

If the heads of the disk drive are soiled, errors may occur during saving or loading. It is important to clean the heads regularly using a commercially available wet-type

3.5inch double-sided head cleaning disk. For the cleaning procedure, refer to the owner’s manual for your cleaning disk.

MIDI data dump

The programs (INT-A–INT-E, EXB-A–EXB-G), combina- tions (INT-A–INT-E, EXB-A–EXB-G), user drum kits, user areggio patterns and global settings of internal memory, and sequencer songs, cue lists, can be transmitted as MIDI exclusive data and saved on a connected MIDI data filer, computer, or another TRITON STUDIO.
