10. The display will indicate “Init ***:* OK ?” (OK to

initialize the current drive?). “***:*” will show
“IDE:*” for the internal hard disk, or
“SC0:*–SC7:*” for an external drive (the number is
the SCSI ID number). The number following the
disk drive name is the partition number. For
example when recovering to partition 0 of the
internal hard disk, the display will indicate
“IDE:0.”

When Canceling the Recover
Operation

You can stop the recover operation by pressing [EXIT
(NO)] during the recover. Moreover, when there is an
error in song data backed up on a tape, the recover
operation is temporarily halted. In such instances, you
can choose whether to leave or delete the (unfinished)
song data recovered up to that point.

* This procedure

does not correct the disk error

, but

tries to restore the song data while keeping as much possi-
ble of the non-error data. Depending on the location in
which the error occurred, some noises may generated or
settings for mixer, tempo map and sync track may be lost.

* Loud noises may damage your audio equipment such as

amplifier and speakers. Please make sure to turn down the
headphones level and master volume of the VS-880EX
when you check errors in the song data.

Canceling a DAT Recovery Operation
in Progress

1. Press [EXIT (NO)] during the DAT recovery.
Recovery is stopped, and “Delete Err Song?” (Delete
the song containing the error?) appears in the display.

2. If you would like to delete from the hard disk the

song data that stopped the recovery operation,
press [YES]. If you would like to keep it as it is
though the recovery is not completed, press [NO].

When an Error is Found in the Song
Data

1. If an error is found in the song data which was

recovered with the DAT recovery operation,
“Recover Err Retry?”(An error was found. Retry
the song?) appears in the display.

2. If you want to try to recover the data, press [YES].

If you want to cancel the recovery, press [NO].

3. If you press [NO] in Step 2, “Delete Err Song?”

then appears in the display.

4. If you would like to delete the song data with the

error from the hard disk, press [YES]. If you
would like to keep it as it is though the error is
included, press [NO].
