It is now possible to record and playback using external disk drives connected via the optional IB-
24SCSI, 68pin wide-SCSI interface.
In fact, it is now possible to use the DPS24 without any internal drives fitted at all which might be
useful if you are recording with microphones close to the DPS24. Although the internal drive is
relatively quiet, you can now house your drive away from the DPS24 for even quieter operation.

You can select the drive you want to use in the PROJECT mode:

Pressing SELECT DRIVE [F1/F2] takes you to this page:

Select the drive you want use with the up/down cursors and confirm by pressing (not surprisingly!)
SELECT DRIVE [F5/6]. You will be returned to the main PROJECT page where you may load or
create new projects as normal.

Because it is now possible to record to/playback from any  internal IDE or external SCSI hard
drive , you can see that the current Project drive’s ID number is now shown in the project name field
top left of every page:

You can also select a USB HOST drive to be the source drive for the PROJECT TOOLS, but it is
not possible to record/playback from a HOST drive. Therefore, both the LOAD and NEW functions
are not operational when a HOST drive is selected.
In other words, a HOST drive can never be the current Project drive.
