above the 32Mbytes of ordinary RAM giving you a total of
48Mbytes of memory. FLASH ROM allows you to keep
your favourite sounds in memory even when the sampler is
switched off.

recordings) to an ordinary DAT recorder.
• Real-time digital output This digital audio output can be used to mix down digitally
to DAT or any other digital recorder such as DCC, MiniDisk

multi-effects processor installed, you may add four
channels of effects processing to the mixdown.
