SAVE
If the drive is not connected or the SCSI ID's don't match, you might receive the message
when you press
or
:
or it may say:
Please check your SCSI cables and that the drive is switched on (it does happen!). Also,
please check the SCSI ID settings of both the drive and the S3000XL. You will also get
this message if a removable type of hard disk is being used and the disk is not inserted in
the drive.
NOTES ON USING EXISTING S1000/S1100 SOUND LIBRARY
The S3000XL allows 510 items to be saved on a floppy or hard disk. On the S1000 and
S1100, 64 items could be stored on floppy and 100 on a hard disk volume. As a result,
the whole format of the directories is completely different.
S1000 and S1100 disks can, of course, be loaded with no problem. However, if you try to
save to a disk that was formatted on an S1000 or S1100, because the disk directory has
now changed, the S1000/1100 disk has to be reformatted. When you perform a save, if
you use
, this process is done automatically for you. If, however, you use
instead of wipe, the S3000XL will remind you:
You may either specifically go through the formatting procedure yourself or you may
simply press
.
The same is true of hard disk volumes. Simply using the
key when you try to save
to a hard disk volume that was originally formatted using an S1000 or S1100, will cause
this message to be displayed:
This is saying that this volumes directory needs to be re-written in the S3000XL format. To
do this, you should use
- this will automatically rewrite the directory. After this, you
may use the volumes as normal.
WARNING!
WHEN USING A HARD DISK, THE ACTION OF KILLING A VOLUME APPLIES ONLY TO
THAT VOLUME. THIS IS NOT A FULL FORMATTING PROCEDURE. WHEN YOU SEE
THE PROMPT, USE
- DO NOT FORMAT YOUR HARD DISK AS THIS WILL ERASE
EVERYTHING ON IT.
If you are at all apprehensive about 'killing' the hard disk volume, save to another empty
volume.
