IMPORTANT NOTES

Power Supply
• If the unit has been used with a power supply that
has not been specified as suitable for the unit, the
subsequent performance and operation of the unit
can no longer be guaranteed. Also note that we
may not be able to accept the unit for servicing and
repairs.
• Place the AC adaptor so the side with the indicator
faces upwards. The indicator will light when you plug
the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
Placement
• Depending on the material and temperature of the
surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet
may discolor or mar the surface.
Repairs and Data
• Before sending the unit away for repairs, be sure to
make a backup of the data stored within it; or you
may prefer to write down the needed information.
Although we will do our utmost to preserve the
data stored in your unit when we carry out repairs,
in some cases, such as when the memory section
is physically damaged, restoration of the stored
content may be impossible. Roland assumes no
liability concerning the restoration of any stored
content that has been lost.
Using External Memories

small children.
Side
Handle the ground terminal carefully
If you remove the screw from the ground
terminal, be sure to replace it; don't leave
15 cm (6 in.)
it lying around where it could accidentally
or greater
be swallowed by small children. When
refastening the screw, make that it is firmly fastened,
so it won't come loose.
Precautions concerning use of phantom power supply
Always turn the phantom power off when
connecting any device other than condenser
microphones that require phantom power.
You risk causing damage if you mistakenly
supply phantom power to dynamic microphones,
audio playback devices, or other devices that don't
require such power. Be sure to check the specifications
of any microphone you intend to use by referring to
the manual that came with it.
