I recommend to not use your main recording HD without having the data backed up. - Danielo

Usage:

There are three ways to get your VS Projects to the PC:

1. connect a VS formatted media like a SCSI hard disk, a Song Vault HD or the VS

internal HD to the computer or;

2. use VirDis or;

3. burn backup CDs and rip their content into files

Using a Harddisk:

To operate VSWaveExport on hard disks it is required that a VS formatted media with the

projects in playable format is connected to the PC. This could be the main VS hard disk, an

external SCSI device or a Song Vault disk. It will not work with projects copied in backup

mode or backup CD-Rs! It might work with 100MB ZIP disks (FAT 12 formatted), due to

lack of an SCSI ZIP drive it has not yet been tested.

If the tool reports that there is no VS disk, please check that your bios has identified the disk

correctly (maybe you have to adjust master/slave jumpers) and that Windows shows the first

4 partitions (note that the tool can access all 12 partitions). If everything looks correct, you

can force the tool to look at a specific partition by dragging the Disk icon (the one you find in

the 'My Computer' view of the Windows Explorer) onto the list of Found Roland Drives.

Using VirDis:

To operate on VirDis Files, drag the *.bin or *.hdd file into the list of Found Roland Drives.

After storing a file via the VS onto the VirDis, hit F5 in the Wave Export App to refresh the

content.
