Many of the examples and exercises in this guide refer to the demo song “SISTER DANCE”,
included on the

D1600 DEMO SONG DATA CD

. If you are unable to locate and load this

demo song, you can still follow this Guided Tour, and gain a basic understanding of the
D1600 features and operation modes.

Load and Play the CD Demo Song:

Note: If you do not have an internal CDR/RW drive installed, you can load the demo song data via the

SCSI connector on the D1600 real panel, using an external compatible CDR/RW drive.

1. Press the CD EJECT button on the front of the CDR/RW drive, and then insert the enclosed D1600

DEMO SONG DATA CD, and press gently to close the CD drawer.

2. Press the SYSTEM key, and then press the “B-U/Rst” tab in the display.

3. Press the “Drive” button, and then press the Radio button to the left of “G:CD [B]”, followed by

pressing the “OK” button.

Note: The “[B]” indicates that the CD contains Backup data.

4. Press the “>” popup button to the left of “Backup 1 Song”, and then press “Restore”, followed by

pressing the “OK” button. The display indicates “G > 001 I 001” (load song G001 to I001). If you
have song data in the I001 location that you do not want to overwrite, press “I001” and use the DIAL to
select another available song location. If I001 can be overwritten, continue with the next step.

5. Press the “Exec.” button in the display, and then press the “Yes” button. The display will indicate

“Restoring”, along with a “% Finished” bar graph to indicate the data being restored.

Note: The Restore function allows you to select one, or all data to restore. Since there is only one demo

song on the CD, you do not have to “Select All” data to load. For more information on the Backup
and Restore functions, see the D1600 Owner’s Manual, page 65.

6. When the restore process is complete, the CD will automatically eject from the CDR/RW drive. Remove

the CD, and then press gently to close the CD drawer.

7. In the display, press the “Yes” button if you haven’t saved any user effects in the D1600, then press

“OK”.

Note: Pressing “Yes” will overwrite any internal user effects with the user effects backup data.

the

button in the display until the demo song “001: SISTER DANCE” is highlighted, then

press the “OK” button to select the demo song.
