Loading and Playing Programs
All sounds and programs are stored on the memory held in RAM and the data is therefore lost
whenever the power is turned off. In order to play any sounds after turning the power on, you
must load them in from the CD or external device connected to the rear panel SCSI interface. The
procedure for loading files from a disk is described in the “Disk Operation” chapter, but to get you
started, the following steps enable you to load sounds from the enclosed CD and play them from
the drum pads:
Please note:
You must have a CD ROM player connected to the MPC2000XL in order to load the sounds
descibed here.
1
Insert the enclosed CD into the CD ROM player.
2
Hold down SHIFT and press LOAD (3 on the numeric keypad).
3
Move to the Device: field with the CURSOR keys and select the SCSI ID number of the
CD ROM with the DATA wheel.
4
Move to the File: field with the CURSOR keys and press OPEN WINDOW.
The MPC2000XL_DRUMS file will be selected.
