APPENDIX 4
S3000XL Operator’s Manual Page 289
Press GO - the operating system will be saved to the
BOOT SYSTEM volume of the FlashROM allowing you to
boot from here instead of floppy disk or a ROM chip.
NOTE: You cannot save audio data to this volume, only an operating system.
AUTOLOAD1-10 Here, you may save the sound data you wish to
automatically load when you switch the
S3000XL/S3200XL on. You could, if you wish, save
everything to AUTOLOAD 1 so that maybe a full 8Meg of
data is stored here and will load from this volume. You
may prefer to spread different sounds across different
volumes. For example, you could put your drums in
AUTOLOAD 1, piano in AUTOLOAD 2, basses in
AUTOLOAD 3, strings in AUTOLOAD 4, etc.. When you
power up the S3000XL/S3200XL, these, of course, will all
be loaded automatically in just a few seconds and will be
immediately available for use but it allows extra flexibility
later on. For example, you may delete the piano program
from memory (either intentionally or accidentally). By
saving this sound to its own AUTOLOAD volume, you may
specifically load that program more easily should you wish
to retrieve it.
NOTE: In order to autoload an operating system and/or sound data from the FlashROM,
you will need to have a new ROM chip installed installed in the S3000XL. The ROM
shipped with with Version 1.00 machines knows nothing about the FlashROM and so will
not look for this on power up and so cannot perform an autoload of any description. The
ROM required for autoloading the o/s or sounds from FlashROM has a routine in that says
something along the lines of:
ON POWER UP, CHECK TO SEE IF THE FLASHROM BOARD IS INSTALLED. IF IT IS,
CHECK THE BOOT VOLUME TO SEE IF THERE IS A VALID O/S. IF THERE IS, LOAD IT
AND THEN CHECK TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY DATA IN THE AUTOLOAD VOLUMES. IF
THERE IS, LOAD IT.
If you want to take advantage of the autoload mechanism of the FlashROM, you will need
a new ROM chip. Please contact your Akai dealer for information on this.
FLASH VOL 11-99 Here you may save data just as though it is a hard disk
volume and these may be loaded manually at any time
you like just like from hard disk (except, of course, you will
only load the programs, the samples being read directly
from the FlashROM).
To save data to a FlashROM volume, press F2 and use the inner DATA wheel to select
the volume you want to save to, press PAGE DOWN and press F2 - GO. You will receive
the usual WIPE/SAVE prompts you are probably familiar with if you have saved any data
to disk and you should respond accordingly. The data will be saved. The time it takes to
save will depend on the amount being saved and save times are about the same as for a
hard disk.
When data is in a FlashROM volume, a ‘#’ is shown alongside the volume name to
indicate this.
