Chapter 6 Use with a Zip Drive

To Load Data from Disks (Drive Select)

If you want to take playable songs that have
been copied to Zip disks and load them onto
the VS-1680's hard disk, first switch the cur-
rent drive to the Zip drive (Drive Select). Afterwards,
you can make playable copies onto the internal hard
disk from the Zip disk.
* Even if you remake a playable copy of a song from the Zip
disk to the internal hard disk without first deleting an
existing playable copy of the song from the hard disk (even
if you return it to the hard disk), the original song is not
overwritten. In this case, a new song is created with the
same song name as that of the original and is written to
the lowest available song number.
