Roland TR-505 - Tape; Saving

m
TAPE INTERFACE
The TR-505's Tape Interface allows
the Tracks writ-
ten into memory
to be stored on a tape.
If saving cannot be done after all,
use a different tape
recorder.
It may
be a good idea to verify if the
data has been
successfully saved every time
to prevent the loss of
important
data. The data saved on
a tape can be
loaded
back to the TR-505 at any time
you
like.
All the
saving, verification and loading
procedures
should be done with the composer
set to the Track
Playing mode and
stopped.
