Backup all data not saving Multisamples! Help!

12 Mar 2005, 06:10

Right, I'm off to the US next week with my XR and thought I'd better take a backup of all my data on the Smartmedia card.
I went to Utility, selected 'Backup User Data' , then sent to sampling and selected ' Save all samples'. However, when I boot up now, all the samples load, but they dont play in the patches where they should be, it seems that none of the multisample data has been saved on this 'backup' card. ( the original card still works fine )

Any ideas? Thanks in advance....

PS my XR is version 1.00

"User backup" only backs up the data in the internal flash RAM (16MB, aka "user area"). So any card patches, multisamples etc. won't get backed up. If you want to back up your card contents, just connect to PC in USB storage mode and copy the "roland" folder to your hard drive, then copy it to another card if that's what you want.

Great, that worked a treat thanks. I was just a bit worried that aeroplanes and airports ( xrays etc ) may damage the CF card, so I'm taking 3 in different cases etc...

Thanks again.
