Introduction

About the Owner`s manual

This manual is intended for those who enjoy to browse through instruction
manuals, and for those of you who have picked this book up for the very first time,
only because something doesn`t work or through misuse of the Drehbank
irreparable damage has been caused to the future of all mankind.

But jokes aside, systems damage through use of the Drehbank is almost
impossible.
The worst things that can happen to the user during use are (1) that the computer
crashes, (2) you experience a systems error which can only be cured by the
resetting of your computer, (3) you experience a systems error while in the editor
program before you have saved the data.
But before you integrate the Drehbank onto your Midi setup please read the
following chapters to see which systems are compatible and how you should install
the editor software.
So as not to become confused while reading the manual we recommend that you read
each chapter through from start to finish and in order. In that way each chapter will
make more sense.
We also recommend that you read the README.TXT file on the Editor disc and
print it out because the information on the disc will be more up to date than the
information found in the manual.

Warning

This goes especially for units that are sold after February 1999. Here you
will find several important notes on the 4 ROM presets, information on
which is not listed in the manual, also any errors that we have found in the
writing of the manual will be updated in the README.txt file.

Also after the installation of the editor program you will find an built-in
'DB_HELP.HLP' help file available to you online. In this file you will find the most
up to date information on the Drehbank Unit.
