Windows: Click on the removal icon on the task bar. Wait
until a drop-down menu appears and select the entry that
says something to the effect of “Stop USB disk E200_E100”.
You should now see a window that says something to the
effect of “The USB device XX can now be safely removed
from the system”. Click on the [OK] button.
—THEN—
Disconnect the USB cable from your computer and the
E-200/E-100.
(10) Press the [USB] button again.
The display shows the “Sure?” message.
(11) Press [YES/+] (the icon disappears).
(Press [NO/–] to remain in USB mode.)
If you copied Music Styles from your computer to the Flash
area, the display now shows “Wait… Converting
Styles” to indicate that files with the extension “.STL”
are converted to the E-200/E-100’s Music Style format
(“.STH”).
Note that this conversion is only necessary for Music Styles
in the E-200/E-100’s Flash area that do not yet have the
“.STH” extension.
Note: This operation adds a few bytes to every converted Music
Style. In rare circumstances (when the Flash area is nearly full),
this may lead to the impossibility to convert all Styles that still
have the extension “.STL”. The E-200/E-100 then displays the
MemFull” message to signal that the conversion was
aborted before reaching the last “.STL” file. All Styles up to that
point have been converted, though, and can be used.
Disk functions
[E-200 only]
The E-200’s Disk functions allow you to save the Recorder Song
in the
USER SNG
memory to disk, to save and load your files
to and from disk, to delete files on a floppy disk, and format
disks.
Though you can use 2DD or 2HD floppies, 2HD disks have twice
the capacity of 2DD disks, so use 2HDs whenever you can.
Whenever the disk drive writes data to or reads data from disk,
the Disk icon ( ) flashes in the display. Do not remove
the floppy disk while this icon is displayed as that may
damage both the disk drive and the disk (so that it becomes
unreadable).
Loading User Programs from disk
This load function is called LOAD Upr. It allows you to trans-
fer a set of 10 User Programs (i.e. for all memories) to the
E-200’s internal memory. This will overwrite the User Programs
that currently reside in the internal memories.
Note: If you wish to use the User Programs in the internal memory
at a later stage, first save them to disk before proceeding. See p. 49.
Note: The User Program set data also contain the TONE button
assignments (page 28). After loading a User Program set, the eight
TONE buttons may therefore select other sounds than before.
(1) Insert a disk into the drive.
(2) Press [DISK] to select the Disk mode.
The “LOAD Upr” function is already selected, so there is
nothing else you need to do. (Otherwise, use FAMILY [√][®] to
select this parameter.)
(3) Use SELECT [√][®] to select the User Program Set you wish
to load.
The Yes message next to it starts flashing.
(4) Press the [YES÷+] button to load the selected file.
Note: Press [NO÷–] if you do not want to load the selected file
after all.
If you pressed [YES÷+], the display now shows the message
Loading”. Once the data have been loaded, the
Complete” message briefly appears.
(5) Press another “big” button in the DATA ENTRY section to
leave this function.
