Roland VS-880EX - Manual (Page 133)

Checking Names of Saved
Performance Data (Name)
This operation lets you check the names of song data
that was saved to a DAT tape. Even if you have saved
the data of two or more songs in a single backup oper-
ation, you can check the name of each song.
This operation also allows you to load selected song
data into the VS-880EX. When the recover operation is
used, the data for all songs which were saved together
by the backup operation are loaded. In contrast, with
the Name procedure, only the song data that you spec-
ify is loaded.
1. Connect the DAT recorder to the VS-880EX as fol-
lowing.
2. Insert the tape which contains the song data into
the DAT recorder. If the song data is backed up
on two or more tapes, insert the first tape.
3. Prepare the tape for playback from the beginning
of the song data.
4. Press [SONG] several times until “SNG DAT
Recover?” appears in the display.
5. Press [YES].
“STORE Current?” (Store the current song?) appears
in the display.
6. If you wish to save the current song, press [YES];
if not, then press [NO]. If you have selected a
demo song, then press [NO] .
7. “D.IN Sel =” appears in the display. Rotate the
TIME/VALUE dial.
D.IN Sel (Digital In Select)
Select either “DIGIN1” (coaxial) or “DIGIN2” (optical)
if you are going to recover data using the VS-880EX’s
DIGITAL IN connector.
