When Cancelling the Recover Operation
You can stop the recover operation by pressing [EXIT
(NO)] during the recover. Moreover, when there is an
error in song data backed up on a tape, the recover
operation is temporarily halted. In such instances, you
can choose whether to leave or delete the (unfinished)
song data recovered up to that point.
* This procedure does not correct the disk error, but
tries to restore the song data while keeping as much possi-
ble of the non-error data. Depending on the location in
which the error occurred, some noises may generated or
settings for mixer, tempo map and sync track may be lost.
* Loud noises may damage your audio equipment such as
amplifier and speakers. Please make sure to turn down the
headphones level and master volume of the VS-1680 when
you check errors in the song data.
