Roland TD-10 - Manual (Page 114)

Saving data to a memory
card
An optional memory card (M-512E) can be used to save TD-
10 settings and sequencer data.
* The Roland M-512E is the ONLY memory card which can be
used.
● About the Protect switch
When the protect switch of the M-512E is turned on, it will
not be possible to write data from the TD-10 to the memory
card. Normally you should leave the protect switch turned
on, and turn it off only when you wish to write data into the
card.

● When using a card for the first time
When a card is being used for the first time, or if the card has
been used by another device, you must execute the follow-
ing procedure to initialize the card. (This prepares the card
for use with the TD-10.)
* When a card is initialized, all data on that card will be lost.
Make sure that it does not contain data you wish to keep for
another device.
1. Press [KIT].
The “DRUM KIT” page will appear.
2. Set the protect switch located at the top of the memory
card to the “Off” position.
3. Insert the memory card into the MEMORY CARD slot
located on the rear panel.
The “INITIALIZE CARD” page will appear.
