Arranging and Writing Songs and

RW drive, and displays the next ID number for a set
time. “SNG Write+Finalize?” then appears in the dis-
play.

4. Press [YES].

5. Store the song to the CD-R disc by following pro-

cedure as described in “Writing Songs to CD-R
Discs” (p. 109).

Saving Songs to CD-RW
Discs (CD-R Backup)

You can save song data stored on the VS-880EX’s hard
disk to CD-RW discs. This procedure is called

backup

.

Conversely, the process of loading backed up song
data onto the internal hard disk is referred to as

recover

. Besides all V-track performance data, backed

up data also includes Locator, Marker, and Scene set-
tings made in the songs.

In CD-R backup, the song data is converted into a data
format specifically for saving. This means that it will
not be possible to directly play back the song data. If
you wish to play back song data copied in archive for-
mat, you will need to reload the backed up data into
the current drive using the appropriate procedure.
Furthermore, when copying a song that does not fit on
a single disc, it is copied onto multiple discs according
to the free space on the discs.

• It is impossible to save any additional song data to the

CD-RW discs or the CD-R discs that already have songs
backed up on them. When you back up onto the CD-RW
discs, existing contents should be totally erased before the
new contents are saved.

• Song data backed up on CD-R discs cannot be rewritten.

Thus, this is an appropriate procedure for backing up
completed song data in its final form.

• Song data recorded onto Zip disks cannot be backed up

onto CD-R discs or CD-RW discs.

• Incorrectly conducting the backup procedure may result

in the loss of data. Roland Corporation assumes no liabili-
ty concerning such loss of data.

• Roland does not warrant any copied data, regardless of

the performance or condition of the CD-R drive.
