Notes on Musical Copyright Precautions for Purchasing Expansion SIMM Memory Some types of commonly available SIMM memory may not work properly with the RS7000, and we cannot guarantee operation with untested memory types. Please check with the retail outlet where you purchased your RS7000, or an authorized Yamaha representative, before purchasing expansion SIMM memory. IMPORTANT • Use only 4, 8, 16, or 32 megabyte 72-pin SIMMs with an access time faster than 70ns. x32bit SIMMs are the standard, but x36bit types (with parity) can also be used. • Always install SIMMs in pairs of the same capacity. A single SIMM will not work. • The RS7000 comes with 4 megabytes of preinstalled sample memory. Thus if you install a pair of 16 megabyte SIMMs (32 megabytes total) you will have 36 megabytes (32 + 4 megabytes) of sample memory. However, since the maximum allowable sample memory for the RS7000 is 64 megabytes, if you install a pair of 32 megabyte SIMMs (64 megabytes total) the initial 4 megabytes will not be used. • SIMMs which use more than 19 memory chips per unit may not function properly with the RS7000. Please choose SIMMs which use 18 or fewer memory chips. • We recommend SIMMs which conform to JEDEC* standards. However, even though a SIMM which conforms to the JEDEC internal circuit configuration functions perfectly in a computer, there is no guarantee that it will work properly with the RS7000. *JEDEC stands for the "Joint Electron Device Engineering Council", a group which sets standards for the configurations of electronic devices. AIEB2 I/O Expansion Board Initially the RS7000 can only record samples from analog sources, and only analog output capability is provided. With the optional AIEB2 I/O Expansion Board, however, you gain optical and coaxial terminals for direct digital signal input and output. Also, 6 assignable outputs (ASSIGNABLE OUT 1 ~ 6) are provided in addition to the standard OUTPUT jacks. Refer to page 276 in the Appendix for details on installing the AIEB2 I/O Expansion Board. NOTE The AIEB1 expansion I/O board cannot be used. Notes on Musical Copyright The RS7000 supports SCMS (Serial Copy Management System) to protect the copyrights of music software. Data that was digitally sampled from a CD or other source cannot be saved to a memory card or SCSI disk in WAV format, or transferred via the TWE wave editor as sample data. If you wish to save this data, you must save it in the RS7000's own format. It is prohibited to use copyrighted songs and sound data (that can be recorded via the RS7000) for commercial purposes. It is also prohibited to reproduce, transfer, or distribute the data, or play the data for a commercial audience without permission from the owners of the copyright, except for personal use or application that does not infringe the copyright. If you wish to use such data for occasions other than personal use, consult a copyright expert. Yamaha is not responsible for any data created, reproduced, or edited using the RS7000, nor for any reproduction or use of such data. RS7000 21
