Selecting DEMO will put the program in demo mode, limiting file and SysEx 
operations, but still allowing you to check out the program. 
The unregistered program lets you freely edit all of the Prophet ’08s preset parameters 
and use most of the Editor's functions with the following limitations: 
•  Saving files (disabled) 
•  Loading files (disabled) with exception of SYSEX files in OS UPDATE utility. 
•  Writing presets to the Prophet ’08 (disabled) 
•  Transmitting the User Bank (disabled) 
When you re-run the program, you’ll need to select demo mode again. This will 
continue until the program has a valid registration. There is no limit to the number of 
times the program can be run in demo mode. 
To register the software, select REGISTER ON LINE. The program will launch your 
default web browser and connect you to the DSI site, where you can purchase/register 
your copy of Prophet ’08 SoundEditor.
