WAVEFORM slots 1-3
These data card slots accept the wave cards re-
leased for the RY30, SY77, and SY55. The
RM50 can select and play these waveforms in
place of its own preset waveforms. Wave cards
released for the RY30 also contain editable
voices which the RMSO loads automatically. The
RMS50 creates voice data for cards released for
the other instruments. Finally, the RMSO can
play the demo songs on data cards released
for the RY30.
DATA slot
This data card slot accepts a data card that will
store additional voices, voice variations, and
rhythm kits, effectively doubling your RM50's
user memory capacity.
