6. Data Management
In this section we’ll offer a few hints on how to efficiently organize and
manage your SY85 data for performance applications.
Refer to the THE UTILITY MODE section beginning on page 209 of the
Feature Reference manual for complete information on card and disk opera-
tions.
Cards or Disks?
The SY85 allows data to be saved to and loaded from 3.5” floppy disks or
Yamaha MCD64 RAM data cards. Whether you use disks or RAM cards will
depend on your individual needs.
MCD64 RAM Cards
RAM cards are the right choice if you will be dealing with relatively small
amounts of data. They are also an excellent supplement to a disk-based data
library — see “Make Separate Performance Disks or Cards,” below.
[Advantages]
Compact and convenient to carry.
Fast data transfer.
Reliable.
[Disadvantages]
More expensive than disks.
Only stores synthesizer data
(this is not a problem for most performance applications).
Limited capacity.
Never attempt to force a voice card into the waveform slot, or
vice versa. Doing so can cause serious damage to the card
connectors.
Floppy Disks
There’s no substitute for floppy disks if you need to store and organize
large amounts of data. Make sure you keep backup disks of important data in a
safe place so accidental loss or erasure of disks doesn’t’ completely wipe out
all your data.
[Advantages]
Compact and convenient to carry.
Inexpensive.
Large data capacity.
Data can be grouped in files.
Can store synthesizer, sequencer, and all other SY85 data.
[Disadvantages]
Slower data transfer than card.
Improper handling or storage (i.e. exposure to magnetic fields) can result
in lost or damaged data.
