to the explanation for the error message that appears, and take the appropriate action.
Message Meaning

the copy could not be executed since the copy-source
and copy-destination patterns have differing time sig-
natures.

Phrase! cannot be registered in an RPS set.
Cannot Assign Since there are no empty parts, you can't assign a sam-
Sample! ple.

Rhythm Instrument (EXTRACT RHY) (p. 77), the
move-source part contained no data of the note num-
ber you specified by Extract Note.

is protected.
DIMM Error The DIMM is not inserted correctly.
Empty Pattern! The pattern cannot be played since it contains no per-

corded in one pattern has been exceeded, no further
pattern recording is possible.

could not be processed correctly.

Full! sampling or sample editing is possible.
Song Recording Since the maximum number of patterns that can be re-
Full! corded in one song has been exceeded, no further
song recording is possible.
Sync Mode: Slave! If the system parameter "Sync Mode" is set to
"SLAVE," you can't perform pattern/song playback
(from the MC-808), solo sampling, or solo with effect
