•The operation differs depending on the type of disk.
•For Technics type data, all of the MEMORY contents of the COMPOSER are overwritten, and in some cases, the SOUND MEMORY contents are also overwritten.
•Style data that requires a lot of data space may not be loaded.
•Depending on the style, volume balance and tone nuances in each part of the pattern may not be played back as in the original data because of the difference in sound source waveform. Also, special effects and tones in- cluding edited tones may not be played back correctly.
•It is possible to play back patterns of more than 16 measures, but they are not recorded or edited correctly.
•When style data differs for the INTRO, FILL IN and VARIATION time signatures, the INTRO, FILL IN and ENDING may not be played back correctly.
•Depending on the manufacturer, the number of styles written on the disk label may differ from the actual number of styles included on the disk.
