* A program that displays the program number and the indicator “*D” after the program number.

This type of program requires more than two disks to save, e.g. “P03[Title]2D”. “2D” means it

needs two disks to save.

7-c. Press the EXECUTE/YES key after you have chosen the program you want. The display will

show “SAVE”.

* If you choose the program that can be saved using one disk only:

The display will show the current song number (S**) and its available memory size on the SCSI
disk, e.g. “S01[Title]0MB” with “SURE?” flashing.
This means you are saving song data whose number is 01 onto a SCSI disk which has 0MB, i.e.
nothing stored. Press the EXECUTE/YES key to proceed.

* If you choose the program that requires more than two disks to save:

The saving will start immediately after you have pressed the EXECUTE/YES key. For example, if
you choose the program containing “P01[Title]2D”, the display will show “P01>>B01-***MB”.
Then, by the time saving is in progress, “-***MB” will be counting down.
The “B01” here means that the data which is being saved to the SCSI device is so called back up
data and the allocated number as “01”.
When finishing saving data to the first disk, the D-160 will show “Insert Disk 2” and eject Disk 1
automatically.
When you insert the second disk in the SCSI device, the D-160 will continue saving the remaining
data with the same back up number.
When the D-160 has successfully saved song data, “COMPLETED!” will be displayed. Press the
EXIT/NO key to cancel the message and return to the normal time base display.

Save to “SCSI” (Save All)

5-d. Choose “SCSI” with the JOG dial and press the EXECUTE/YES key.

The display will show “SAVE”. The display will also start flashing the current program number
on the internal hard disk drive, which you are saving the song data from, e.g. “P02[Title]”.

6-d. With the JOG dial, choose “Save All”.

The display will show “Save All? (**/**)”, which indicates the numbers of programs you are
saving and the numbers of programs that the current SCSI disk can save. For example, if the
display shows “03/03”, this means that there are a total of three programs to be saved and all
three programs can be saved to the current disk. However, if the display shows “01/03”, this
means that there are a total of three programs to be saved but only one program can be saved.
Or if the display shows “00/03”, none of the available programs can be saved due to the shortage
of SCSI disk space. In this last case, even though you press the EXECUTE/YES key to try to save the
song data, the D-160 cannot proceed with saving and will display “Void Command!” as a warning
message.
Basically, it is not possible to use more than two disks for saving the data with the “Save All”
option, unlike the “Program by Program” option described in the previous section. Therefore,
you have to find a large enough disk or try to save the data program by program.

7-d. Press the EXECUTE/YES key. The display will show “SAVE”.

The data which is being saved is called Song Data with the “Save All” option rather than back up
data with the “Program by Program” option.

* Unlike saving to DAT or adat, saving song data to SCSI cannot stop in the middle of

saving.

* If you want to change the title of the song data you are saving to SCSI, use “2-20. Drive

Sel?” to switch over the current drive to “SCSI” and proceed with “2-4. Title Edit?” in the
SETUP mode.

* When you are choosing “Save All” or saving song data on more than two disks on the

SCSI device, if you try to save on a disk which already has some data recorded, the D-160
will ask you whether you want the D-160 to erase all the data completely, e.g. the display
will show “B01[Title]DEL” or “S01[Title]DEL” with “SURE ?” flashing.
Press the EXECUTE/YES key if you don’t mind the disk being overwritten. But, if you do,
press the EXIT/NO key or STOP button to quit the mode and insert the correct disk.
To eject the disk, press the EXIT/NO key while holding down the STOP button.
