Connecting to Your Computer via USB
(USB Mode)
The USB function used with the RD-700SX features two modes, a
Storage mode
used for transferring files, and a
MIDI mode
used for
MIDI transmissions. Use of these modes requires that the settings be
switched with the RD-700SX, and the two modes cannot be used
simultaneously.
Any switching of the USB mode (Storage mode/MIDI mode)
must be performed before the RD-700SX and computer are
connected.
The following shows the compatibility between operating systems
and modes.
