Yamaha DX27 Electronic Keyboard User Manual


 
Before using this function, make sure that an appropriate data cassette recorder
is properly connected to the DX27, as described in
CHAPTER I: SETTING UP.
When this function is initially called, the LCD will read “Save to Tape ?” Confirm
your intention to save the contents of the 24 voices to cassette tape by pressing
the +1 button. The display will then read “Save ready?” At this point, reconfirm
that the cassette recorder is set up properly, make sure a suitable blank tape is loaded
into the cassette recorder, and start the recorder running in the RECORD mode.
To begin the actual save operation, press the +1 button. Pressing the -1 button
prior to the final step in the above process will abort the CASSETTE SAVE function.
As the DX27 saves each voice to tape, the LCD display will indicate the voice number
being saved.
When all 24 voices have been saved, the DX27 will automatically go into the VERIFY
mode, permitting you to check that the data was recorded properly.
Stop the cassette recorder. The LCD will now read “Verify Tape ?” To verify, first
rewind the tape to the beginning of the file just saved, then press the +1 button
in response to the “Verify Tape ?” display, which should be showing. The display
will now read “Verify ready?” Press the +1 button, then start the cassette recorder
running in the PLAY mode. The DX27 will now read each voice from the cassette
tape, and compare it with the corresponding voice data in the INTERNAL voice
memory, as the LCD indicates the verification process. If the cassette and INTERNAL
data matches, the display will read “Verify Completed.” Any PLAY mode can then
be entered simply by pressing the corresponding mode selector button,
If an error is encountered, this will be displayed on the LCD. If this happens, go
back and try the SAVE process—followed by the VERIFY process—one more time.
If the error persists, then you may have to carefully adjust the record and/or playback
level of the cassette recorder, or use a higher quality recorder or tape. Be sure to
check that all cassette connections are made properly.
