Pre-calculated waveform data will be lost. Typically this should be acceptable.
The waveforms will be recalculated as needed. In many instances this will be the
quickest option in that it does not require your intervention at all. However, if you
think that you will save time and that waveforms are essential to a project in
progress, then you may save and subsequently restore these files. Please be
forewarned, waveform caching files are large –
C:\EUPHONIX\SYSTEM\*.IMG
Safety Copies of All Disk Directories written from this machine will be lost. A
Safety copy of each Audio Disk Directory (also called a Table of Contents or TOC) is
written to the host file system of the R-1 Pilot whenever the disk drive is being
saved. The master copy is written to the audio disk and will automatically be
restored to the system whenever that drive is loaded. The Safety copy is only an
extra back-up to the master copy. As with any safety system, there is no guarantee
that the safety copy will be the most current and desirable version of the disk.
Further there is no way for the user to direct the machine to use a safety copy of a
Disk Directory. Instead the R-1 evaluates the TOC of any newly loaded disk then
determines to try to use the safety copy if there appears to be a problem. For this
reason you would only be interested in backing up this information if you were
having problems or suspected problems with a disk already.
C:\EUPHONIX\SYSTEM\*.FMT
Please Note: It is very seldom productive to go through the step of reloading all
the software components of your R-1. Although it is a popular approach with
Windows, where there are many differing programs all working within the same
operating environment, and where programs are loaded and unloaded all the time,
the R-1 is a closed system. There is little actual likelihood of corruption in the
operating system. In those rare instances where the R-1 fails, experience generally
shows it is a cabling problem or damage to a component while in transit.
Before electing to reload all software you should consult with R-1 Technical
Support or Euphonix Field Support. Our staff will gladly help you analyze the
situation and also help in evaluating items that should be saved before re-writing the
disk. It may also be possible that Euphonix staff will recommend simply reloading
Windows 98SE. This is done by inserting a Windows 98SE CD-ROM and running (select
Run from the Start Menu) D:\WIN98\SETUP.EXE. In the following section you will
find all the typical setting for Windows 98SE. If you use the Operating System Image
as described above all of these settings will be established automatically. However,
using either method, it may be necessary to –
Reload the most current R-1 Application software version (from its separate CD-
ROM)
Re-establish your network connection
Re-tune your monitor
