All you have to do is insert the new system disk in the floppy disk drive of your S-50. FEATURES • A 16-channel MIDI sequencer with up to 16 voices and 32 tones. • Easy-to-use software that provides continued access to all existing high quality sound libraries for the S-50 yet adds an entirely new range of musical possibilities to your keyboard. • A choice of two disk formats: (A) Sound data plus one song and (B) "Song only" disks with 36 songs and no sound data. • A new "chain play" function that allows you to automatically play back up to six songs in succession from the S-50 memory. • Complete facilities for editing notes and all other types of MIDI events. • Instant access to the latest in electronic sequencer functions — PUNCH IN, PUNCH OUT, quantizing, and gate timing adjustment, for example. • Synchronized playback with other sequencers, drum machines, and other MIDI equipment. • Rapid access to the Sampler System Ver. 2.00 tone editing facilities. • A detailed display that presents all relevant data in an easy-to-read form so that editing is easier and faster. 3 ^15 software requires a CRT display Refer to p.9 (color) of your 0 Version 2.00 Owner's Manual for complate details as to the type of monitored and connections required This software comes with a set of label decals listing the function!

To prevent irretrievable loss of your valuable data, always handle your disks with the proper care. This shutter protects the disk when it is not in use. Never touch the disk inside. a thin plastic disk inside this case. * To prevent accidental loss of data, we recommend that you leave this tab in its PROTECT position except when you deliberately wish to write {record) new data. Figure 2 Floppy Disk • Never open the shutter and touch the magnetic film inside. The oil from a fingerprint is sufficient to interfere with proper recording and playback. • Avoid dusty and smoky environments. Any airborne particulate matter that lands on the surface of the disk risks scratches that can lead to irretrievable loss of data. • Keep the disk away from strong magnetic fields — TV sets, speakers, and even CRTs, for example. • Do not store at temperatures outside the 5—50°C (41—122°F) range. Do not, for example, leave in direct sunlight or in a locked car on a clear, hot day. • To prevent accidental loss of data, always keep the WRITE PROTECT tab in its PROTECT position. Shift it to the WRITE position only when you wish to write (record) new data or overwrite old data and then be sure to return it to the PROTECT position immediately afterwards. • Do not switch off the S-50 or attempt to remove the disk while the disk access LED is lit. Wait until the disk stops. • Avoid shocks to the S-50 — and the disk drive in particular — while the disk is in motion. Such a shock may disturb head alignment and interfere with playback. Note: Refer to your S-50 Version 2.00 Owner's Manual for complete details on caring for your instrument. 5 TABLE OF CONTENTS IH Preparing to Play ...........................8 1 Connections .........................8 1.1 Mixer, keyboard amplifier, etc..............8 1.2 Monitor ..........................................9 2 Booting ............................................9 2.1 The DIRECTOR-S system disk............9 2.2 Procedure..................................10 3 Backing Up the System Disk..................11 d] Introduction......................................13 1 Sound Sources and the Sequencer..........13 1.1 Creating song data ............................13 1.2 Sound sources..................................14 2 Loading and Saving Data......................15 3 The Five DIRECTOR-S Modes..............16 4 Standard Operations............................17 [I SONG PLAY .................................18 BQ PATTERN WRITE .............................20 1 PATTERN PLAY................................21 2 Changing the Screen............................22 3 MICROSCOPE Screen..........................23 3.1 Screen layout....................................23 3.2 CPT units.....................................
