Copyright
852a
• When exchanging audio signals through a
digital connection with an external
instrument, this unit can perform recording
without being subject to the restrictions of the
Serial Copy Management System (SCMS).
This is because the unit is intended solely for
musical production, and is designed not to be
subject to restrictions as long as it is used to
record works (such as your own composi-
tions) that do not infringe on the copyrights
of others. (SCMS is a feature that prohibits
second-generation and later copying through
a digital connection. It is built into MD
recorders and other consumer digital-audio
equipment as a copyright-protection feature.)
851
• Unauthorized recording, distribution, sale,
lending, public performance, broadcasting, or
the like, in whole or in part, of a work (musical
composition, video, broadcast, public perfor-
mance, or the like) whose copyright is held by a
third party is prohibited by law.
853
• Do not use this unit for purposes that could
infringe on a copyright held by a third party. We
assume no responsibility whatsoever with
regard to any infringements of third-party
copyrights arising through your use of this unit.
Additional Precautions
***
• To create your original audio CD with Roland
VS series and CDR-88RW-4, you need an
internal IDE hard disk (HDP88 series, HDP35
series, etc.).
552
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore
the contents of data that was stored on a DAT
recorder or disk drive (hard disk, Zip disk,
etc.) once it has been lost. Roland Corporation
assumes no liability concerning such loss of
data.
553
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using
the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls;
and when using its jacks and connectors.
Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
556
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables,
grasp the connector itself—never pull on the
cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts,
or damage to the cable’s internal elements.
557
• A small amount of heat will radiate from the
unit during normal operation.
558a
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to
keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels.
You may prefer to use headphones, so you do
not need to be concerned about those around
you (especially when it is late at night).
559a
• When you need to transport the unit, package
it in the box (including padding) that it came
in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use
equivalent packaging materials.
