USING THE FXM008 FLASH ROM BOARD(S)
Two FXM008 FlashROM boards may be installed in the S3000XL. FlashROM is similar in
many ways to RAM except that FlashROM can retain data stored in it when the unit is
switched off. This allows you to keep your favourite sounds in FlashROM and have them
available automatically when you switch the S3000XL on. In this way, you get all the
benefits of a sampler where you can record your own samples and make your own
programs with the advantage that these sounds are available without lengthy loading
times much like a modern synthesiser.
