Using the Floppy Disk Drive
(WK-3800 Only)
The WK-3800 comes with a built-in disk drive, which
provides you with the capabilities described below.
• You can save song memory and synthesizer data on a floppy
diskette for long-term storage. When you need the data
again, simply insert the diskette into the disk drive and
load it.
• You can play back SMF (standard MIDI file) data created
on a personal computer and saved to diskette.
Floppy Diskette Precautions
IMPORTANT!
• Be sure to carefully read all documentation that comes
with the floppy diskette for important information about
how to handle it.
• Avoid the following locations when storing and using
diskettes. Any of the conditions noted below can cause
data stored on the diskette to become corrupted.
• Near TVs, on top of audio equipment, or in any area
exposed to magnetism. Take special care to keep
diskettes away from any source of magnetism.
• Areas exposed to direct sunlight, or subject to high
humidity or temperature extremes.
• Failure to observe any of the following precautions can
cause data stored on the diskette to become corrupted.
• Never try to take a diskette apart.
• Never open the shutter of the diskette or touch the
film inside with your fingers.
• Never bend a diskette or otherwise subject it to rough
handling.
• Affix labels in the spaces provided only, and do not
affix labels on top of previous ones.
• Do not eject the diskette from the drive while the access
lamp is lit or flashing or turn off keyboard power with a
diskette in the drive. Doing either can cause data on the
diskette to become corrupted and can even cause
malfunction of the disk drive.
• Never insert any foreign objects into the disk drive. Doing
so can cause it to malfunction.
• The disk drive uses a magnetic head. A dirty head cannot
read data from a diskette properly and can corrupt
existing data on the diskette. To avoid this, be sure to
use a commercially available head cleaning diskette to
periodically clean the head.
