IMPORTANT NOTES
Maintenance
401a
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has
been slightly dampened with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth
impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to
wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
402
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the
possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Repairs and Data
452
• Please be aware that all data contained in the unit’s memory may be lost
when the unit is sent for repairs. Important data should always be backed
up on a memory card, or written down on paper (when possible). During
repairs, due care is taken to avoid the loss of data. However, in certain
cases (such as when circuitry related to memory itself is out of order), we
regret that it may not be possible to restore the data, and Roland assumes
no liability concerning such loss of data.
Additional Precautions
551
• Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irretrievably lost as a
result of a malfunction, or the improper operation of the unit. To protect
yourself against the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that
you periodically save a backup copy of important data you have stored in
the unit’s memory on a memory card, or other device.
552
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data that was
stored on a memory card, unit’s memory, or other device once it has been
lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
553
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s buttons, sliders, or
other controls; and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling
can lead to malfunctions.
554
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
555
• A small amount of noise may be heard from the display during normal
operation.
556
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—
never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage
to the cable’s internal elements.
557
• A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during normal operation.
558a
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s volume at
reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need
to be concerned about those around you (especially when it is late at
night).
559a
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including
padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equiv-
alent packaging materials.
561
• Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-5; sold separately). By
connecting any other expression pedals, you risk causing malfunction
and/or damage to the unit.
562
• Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using some other make
of connection cable, please note the following precautions.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that incor-
porate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can
cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For
information on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the
cable.
566b
• The sensitivity of the D Beam controller will change depending on the
amount of light in the vicinity of the unit. If it does not function as you
expect, adjust the sensitivity as appropriate for the brightness of your
location. Increase this value will raise the sensitivity (p. 226).
Before Using Cards
Using Memory Cards
704
• Carefully insert the memory Card all the way in—until it is firmly in place.
705
• Never touch the terminals of the memory card. Also, avoid getting the
terminals dirty.
707
• This unit’s memory card slot accepts CompactFlash, Smartmedia (3.3V).
708
• CompactFlash, Smartmedia (3.3V) are constructed using precision compo-
nents; handle the cards carefully, paying particular note to the following.
• To prevent damage to the cards from static electricity, be sure to
discharge any static electricity from your own body before handling the
cards.
• Do not touch or allow metal to come into contact with the contact
portion of the cards.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject cards to strong shock or vibration.
• Do not keep cards in direct sunlight, in closed vehicles, or other such
locations (storage temperature: -25 to 85° C).
• Do not allow cards to become wet.
• Do not disassemble or modify the cards.
Handling CD-ROMs

held by a third party is prohibited by law.
852a
• When exchanging audio signals through a digital connection with an
external instrument, this unit can perform recording without being subject

because the unit is intended solely for musical production, and is designed
not to be subject to restrictions as long as it is used to record works (such as
your own compositions) that do not infringe on the copyrights of others.
(SCMS is a feature that prohibits second-generation and later copying
through a digital connection. It is built into MD recorders and other
consumer digital-audio equipment as a copyright-protection feature.)
