Data. Used to select a data read or save operation. The menu
defaults to Abort, this is used to terminate a data transfer
operation in progress. The special case, clear header, erases
the tape header information in the AI-2 so that information read
from a previous tape will not be inadvertantly stored to a new
tape.
Read Tape. If set to AUTO will always prompt the user to read
data from the tape when the ADAT transports are loaded.
Read SysEx. If set to AUTO MIDI SysEx information received
at the MIDI IN port will automatically overwrite the data header.
