Before You Play
A song you’ve recorded on the HP203 can be saved by
copying it to separately sold USB memory (p. 60).
You can also copy songs to a floppy disk using a separately
sold floppy disk drive.
You can also play back SMF music data or audio files (p. 42)
saved on USB memory or a floppy disk.
Use USB memory and floppy disk drive available
from Roland. Proper operation cannot be
guaranteed if other USB device is used.
1. Connect the USB memory to the External
Memory connector.

Carefully insert the USB memory all the way in—until it is
firmly in place.
If you’re using new USB memory, you’ll need to
initialize (format) it on the HP203. For details, refer
to Initializing the USB memory (p. 58).
You can play back audio CDs and CD-ROMs containing
saved SMF music files.
* You can also play songs on VIMA CD-ROMs (VIMA TUNES) sold
by Roland.
