About
"Booting the
MC"
MC
series
devices (such as
MC-500MK
II,
MC-500
and
MC-300)
does
not function
at
all
unless they
are activated
with
a
system
disk
such
as
SUPER
-MRC
or
SUPER
-MRP.
Further,
the
same
MC
works
differently
depending
on
the
system
disk
used.
The
system
program
that
determines
how
the
MC
should function
is
saved
on
each
system
disk,
and
the
MC
reads the
program
when
it
is
switched
on.
This
initial
action
taken
to activate
the
MC
is
called
BOOTING.
Thus,
we
say
you
BOOT
the
MC
with
such
and
such
system.

Explanation
of
SUPER -MRP
terminology
The
following describes the
terminology frequently used
in
this
manual.
•Bank
A
Bank
is
the
group
of
songs which can
be loaded
by
taking
one
loading procedure.
There
are
26
Banks,
A
to
Z, in
this
software.
Up
to
32
different
songs can
be
set
in
each Bank,
and
a
maximum
of
99 songs
can
be
programmed
far
all
26
Banks. Depending
on
the
hardware you
use,
the
amount
of
song
data
which
can be
set
in
a
Bank
varies.
The
internal
memory
capacity of the
MC-500MK
II
is
approximately
equivalent to
a
whole
floppy
disk,
and
that
of
the
MC-500
or
300
a
quarter of
a
floppy
disk.
