The Cassette Interface; Interfacing The Memorymoog To A Monophonic Synth - Moog Memorymoog 345 Owner's Manual

THE CASSETTE INTERFACE

This is used to store information from the memory onto cassette tapes, expanding your library
of patches beyond the 100 that the Memorymoog will hold. To access the interface, it's necessary to
connect the cassette properly.

Connect the Memorymoog TO TAPE output to the MIC level input of the recorder. (Use only one
channel of a stereo recorder.) Connect the Memorymoog FROM TAPE input to the EARPHONE
(or line level) output of the recorder and, where applicable, connect the Memorymoog REMOTE
jack to the REMOTE or START/STOP input of the recorder. If your recorder is not so equipped,
start/ stop must be done manually.
If you don't have a small cassette tape recorder with automatic level control, there is a leader
signal at the front of the cassette save function which you can use to set the level of your recorder. It
should be set at around ± 3 on the VU meter to ensure sufficient level.
To save programs onto tape, hit PREFIX C, press 1, press ENTER. This starts the cassette save
operation, which takes about 30 seconds. When saving to tape, your instrument is inoperative.
When it's complete, the Alphanumeric Display will read "SAVED."
To verify that saving took place correctly, rewind the tape and press PREFIX C, hit 3, hit EN-
TER, and start the tape. When the tape has been completed, the Alphanumeric Display will read
"VERIFIED" if the tape has been made properly. It will read "ERROR" if there's a problem. If the
playback volume is too low, the Display will read "VOL LOW."
To load programs from a cassette tape, press PREFIX C, hit 2, hit ENTER. When the tape has
been completed, the Alphanumeric Display will read "LOADED" if there wasn't any problem. It
will read "VOL LOW" if the playback volume is too low, and it will read "ERROR" if there's some
other problem. Generally speaking, you should always verify a tape before you try to load it.
