Boot to Roland mode?
When booting Roland mode, be forewarned that if Europa has run already, preset bank C & D will
contain junk presets. Europa uses this area to store persistent state, such as the current patch edits, MIDI
channel, and other persistent board settings (not patches or presets though!). Recalling preset bank C OR
D under Roland mode may cause the board to crash! The Roland code does not check for invalid memory
settings and usually causes the board to lock up.
To boot Roland mode:
Power off the Jupiter 6
Press and hold the TAPE
TAPETAPE
TAPE button
Power on the Jupiter 6
The board will boot to the original Roland code. NOTE: Patches and presets made with Europa will not
be available to the Roland code! See the next question for details on how to get Europa patches/presets to
NVRAM so the Roland code can see it…

We’re not exactly sure why this is desirable (maybe to make a tape for someone who doesn’t have a
Europa?) but it is included for the sake of completeness.

Any patches/presets edited while in Roland mode will NOT automatically appear in the Europa flash.
Also, Europa formatted presets will lose setting information, such as non-Roland mode supported
assignment modes, sequences, rhythms, etc.. since the Roland code does not have these features.

followed, the only step required to restore all patches/presets is to simply play the sequence back to the
Jupiter 6.
The Jupiter 6’s front panel lights will shimmer or flicker during restoration – this is normal! The Jupiter 6
hardware requires that Europa strobe the front panel lights, and strobing is not possible when Europa is
writing to flash.
If these steps have not been followed, ensure that there is at least a 70 millisecond gap between all system
exclusive messages, otherwise restoration of patches/presets will be intermittent if not incomplete.
