Yamaha mdf3 Manual Do Utilizador

20

Now that you’ve formatted a floppy disk, you’re ready to start using the
MDF3. The overview below summarizes the use of each of the MDF3’s four
modes, and shows you how to access the JOB and UTILITY mode functions.

This mode lets you receive bulk data from a MIDI device and
save it to disk as an MDR data file. In this mode the MDF3
can also transmit the contents of MDR files it creates, as well
as bulk data files created by the Yamaha MDF2 and the QX3
in MDR mode.

This mode lets you record sequence data as standard MIDI
files. In this mode, the MDF3 can also play back the SEQ data
files it creates (You can also play back the MDF2’s SEQ data
files), as well as Yamaha ESEQ data files and standard MIDI
files created by other devices.

This mode lets you play back SEQ data files repeatedly, or in
a programmed order. It also allows you to set the sequence
data playback tempo, and to enable or disable the transmis-
sion and reception of MIDI sync and system control mes-
sages.

The UTILITY mode lets you rename, delete, copy, and ap-
pend files. It also allows you to format or copy disks, and to
check the amount of space remaining on a disk.

 In the JOB and UTILITY modes, you can use the FILE DATA

keys to select a function, and the START/STOP key to execute the
function you’ve selected.
