On this screen, you can select a size for the SCSI BUFFERS (a temporary holding area in the
ASR-10’s internal memory, where the ASR-10 stores information that is to be transferred to
an external SCSI storage device). The SCSI Buffer (spooling size) is based on the amount of
ASR-10 internal RAM memory that is currently available, and may be different than the
amount shown in the illustration above. Larger numbers give you a greater safety margin for
writing the data out to disk. We recommend using the largest buffer size that your system
will support.

Press (ENTER-YES), and select the SCSI ACCESS SPEED:

ESS SPEED=3

This defaults to 3, but can be increased or decreased (using the Data Entry Controls) to match
the speed of your connected SCSI storage device. Note that setting the SCSI ACCESS SPEED
too high can have an adverse effect on sequencer timing. We recommend starting with the
default value of 3, and only increase the value if the SCSI ACCESS TOO SLOW message is
displayed.

Set this to the SCSI storage device ID number that you want to record on. This will
automatically reset Command/System*MIDI, CHANGE STORAGE DEVICE to match the
same SCSI ID number. Selecting REC SCSI DRIVE=NONE will allow playback

current SCSI storage device, and will disable Audio Track recording.

This creates or resizes the Temporary Record Files, and defines the largest size that the
AudioSample can be when recorded to the SCSI storage device.
12. Press

again.
The ASR-10 will now prepare the SCSI storage device for recording DiskTracks. The display
will show PREPARING SCSI DEVICE (if it needs to access the SCSI device for anything),
followed by COMMAND COMPLETED, and then you will be returned to the CONFIGURE
AUDIO TRACKS command page.
Note: RAM AudioSamples can still be played back along with SCSI AudioSamples
when ATRK PLAY/REC=SCSI.
