If there is not enough memory to record Audio Tracks, this will be displayed
when you try to enter record with an Audio Track selected.
If you try to run a
command that requires more memory than available, this will be displayed and
the command will be aborted.
When importing Akai/Roland samples, if there is not enough free memory to
load either the directory from the selected Akai or Roland format SCSI Storage
Device, or the first WaveSample, this will be displayed, and the command will
be aborted.

This appears when you try to manually change the Edit/Seq*Song, CLOCK
SOURCE to MIDI when Audio Tracks have been configured for DiskTrack
recording.

DEV The SCSI storage device selected is not a valid A.!%-10 formatted Storage
Device, and cannot be used by the ASR-10. Make certain you inserted an
ASR-10 formatted SCSI Cartridge before powering on the ASR-10.
You may choose to reformat the SCSI storage device for use with the ASR-10.
Use caution, as this will erase all previously saved data on the SCSI Storage
Device.

The allocated Temporary Record Files have been used up, or you are
configured for SCSI with REC FILE SIZE=CURRENT, but no Temporary
Record files exist on the selected SCSI storage device.

This will appear if you are trying to record a Song Audio Track, but
Command/Seq*Song,

It will also appear if you are trying to record Song Audio Track A and
PLAY=SEQ A + SONG B, or you are trying to record Song Audio Track B and
PtAY=SONG A + SEQ B.

recording has completely filled the ASR-10 internal memory during
recording. The sequencer will automatically stop recording, the message WIII
be displayed for two seconds, and the ASR-10 will enter Audition Play. The
AudioSample data that was recorded before all memory was exhausted is
processed as if you had pressed (STOP-CONTINUE) to exit recording.
PREPRRE RJRKS FIRST
If an Audio Track is selected, but the Audio Tracks have not been prepared (i.e
data has not been cued up by pressing (ENTER-YES), or selecting an
unselected Audio Track while the sequencer is stopped), this will be displayed
when you try to enter record. The sequencer will not enter record with an
Audio Track selected until the Audio Tracks have been prepared.
RERDIt?G DIRECTORY
When importing Akai/Roland samples, when the ASR-10 is reading the
directory contents from the selected Akai or Roland format SCSI Storage
Device, this will be displayed. All button presses will be ignored while this
message is displayed.
SCSI RCCESS JCO
SLOW
This is displayed when you press (STOP-CONTINUE) to stop sequencer
playback, and it means that the selected SCSI storage device is not keeping uf
during audio playback. This could be due to one or more of the followmg:
Within the
Command/System*MIDI,
CONFIGURE AUDIO TRACKS command:
l
SCSI BUFFERS too small
l
SCSI ACCESS SPEED too slow
Problems relating to the External SCSI storage device:
l
disk access time too slow
l
disk seek time too slow
l
disk drive not smart about caching
l
disk drive SCSI interface too slow
l
disk fragmented
You can continue to use the sequencer even though this message appeared,
because it is possible that some problems can be detected but not heard. If
you see this message but didn’t hear a problem, you might want to consider
reconfiguring the Audio Tracks (using the Command/System*MIDI,
CONFIGURE AUDIO TRACKS command) with larger SCSI BUFFERS and a
slightly faster SCSI ACCESS SPEED. If you hear glitching of the Audio Tracks
ou should definitely look for this message when you press
. Note that this message does not appear in Audition Play.
SELECT RSI’tPL FIRST
If
the
Edit/(audio)
Track, ASMPLNAME=‘UNDEFINED”, or if no
AudioSamples
exist, this will be displayed when any AUDIOSAMPLE command is invoked.
Go to the ASMPLNAME parameter and use the

buttons to
choose a target AudioSample before invoking the Command.
