Page 226 CD3000XL OperatorÕs Manual
LOADING S900/S950 SAMPLES AND PROGRAMS
No special command is provided for S900 samples. Inserting an S900 disk will give you this
display:
Simply select the appropriate load type and proceed as above. The CD3000XL display will
inform you when a sample for the S900 is being read, and after each S900 sample has been
successfully read, an additional message, ‘unscrambling S900 sample’ will appear, as the
CD3000XL converts the S900 data to CD3000XL format (12-bit to 16-bit).
LOADING S1000/S1100 DATA
There is no compatibility issue with sounds created on an S1000 or S1100 and these can be
loaded with no conversion process. However, there are notes given in the SAVE MODE
section that give details about saving such data from the CD3000XL back onto an
S1000/S1100 formatted disk should you wish to do so.
AUTO LOADING FROM DISK
If you turn on the CD3000XL with a floppy disk in the drive, the contents of the disk will be
loaded into memory. If the disk contains a copy of the operating system and this operating
system is the same or a higher version number than the ROM version, this will be loaded.
If a hard disk is attached and set to SCSI ID 5 and the operating system is on the first volume,
the operating system will be automatically loaded from this if it is the same or a higher version
than the ROM version and no floppy disk is in the drive at power-on.
It is a good idea for you to make a copy of any Operating System disks for your CD3000XL and
always turn on the CD3000XL with the latest version inserted in the floppy disk drive (see
SAVE for details on saving operating system to disk).
