Owner’s Manual
Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the AR-200S Roland Audio Recorder. This manual mainly
describes how to use the AR-200S as a playback device using CompactFlash cards that contain recordings made
with other AR Series models.
* When recording to CompactFlash cards with the AR-3000/2000/200/100, we recommend use of optional Roland
CompactFlash cards (PM-***-CF Series).
Simplified Panel, Specialized for
Remote Control from Other Devices
The AR-200S can be used as a dedicated playback
device, which is controlled by means of instructions
from other devices, and which employs phrases
created with the AR-3000/200 and saved on
CompactFlash cards.
High-Quality Recording and
Playback
Roland’s innovative RDAC system enables high-
quality recording and playback using less data. You
can select recording settings tailored to the usage
circumstances and the capacity of the card, with six
different sampling frequencies and four levels of
signal processing (RDAC-Mode). This ensures
compatibility for recording and playback for a variety
of situations and applications.
All recorded phrases are saved on memory cards,
allowing you to quickly play phrases for any situation,
simply by changing cards.

Audio Recording System Uses No
Moving Parts
The AR-200S uses memory cards in an audio
recording system that has no moving parts. The
system uses no rotating parts or drive mechanism, so
it’s practically maintenance free. It also features
excellent sound quality and superior reliability.
A Variety of Control Terminals for a
Wide Range of Playback Methods
The AR-200S features “Control Input Terminals” as
control connectors. This permits connection of
switches, sensors, program timers, and other devices,
enabling control of the unit from another location. In
addition, the AR-200S can be controlled with a
computer via the RS-232C port.
Compact Half-Rack Size Body
The 1U half-rack size body takes up practically no
space. The AR-200S can be mounted in any standard
19-inch EIA rack using the optional rack mount
adapter.
Allows DC-Powered Operation
The AR-200S features input terminals for DC power
supplies, making the unit compatible in a variety of
usage environments.
