Sound SIMMs
MK-6 can be easily expanded to contain up to 128 MB of sound data
(4 SIMMs).
Remove the ROM Hatch Cover:
1. The sound SIMM sockets in MK-6 are located beneath a small hatch on
the bottom panel. Unplug power from the unit and carefully turn it
keyboard-side down on a soft, padded surface.
2. The ROM hatch is a 125cm x 140cm rectangle secured by four screws.
(You can’t miss it.) Remove the four phillips head screws securing this
hatch and place them and the hatch cover where they won’t get lost.
To Remove ROM SIMMs (if necessary):
1. Orient the unit so that the rear panel is facing you. Ground yourself by
touching a grounded object. (Such as the chassis of another piece of
equipment connected to the wall socket with a three-prong power plug.)
2. On each end of the SIMM socket there is a silver or plastic tab. Use a
screwdriver or a ball point pen to squeeze the tabs toward the outside of
the socket while gently nudging the SIMM toward the right side of the
unit. The old SIMM should “hinge” to the right and can now be
removed.
