S3000XL Operator’s Manual Page 237

MIDI VIA SCSI

The final soft key in this mode, F7, calls up the SCSI screen:

On this page you can enable or disable MIDI bulk data transmission along a SCSI buss,

rather than the MIDI connections, and set the SCSI IDs for both the S3000XL

( ) and the other SCSI device ( ). The other SCSI

device can be sampler of the S3000 or newer XL series or a personal computer

(equipped with the appropriate software). Values for SCSI device IDs can be from 0 to 7

and the two devices must have different SCSI numbers, otherwise there will be a conflict

on the SCSI buss as two devices try to share the same ID. SCSI transmission of MIDI is

much faster than normal MIDI data dumps which can take an awfully long time!!

NOTE 1: When using the Mac™ editing software supplied with the S3000XL, this page

should be set as appropriate. However, you needn’t worry too much about this as the

software ‘seeks out’ the device on the SCSI chain when you open it and it will find the

sampler’s local SCSI ID automatically.

NOTE 2: If you have two samplers sharing the same disk drive thus:

SAMPLER A

SAMPLER B

DISK DRIVE

Make sure the parameters on each sampler are different. If they are

the same, you will notice difficulty in accessing the disk drive for loading or saving data.

The same applies when using two or more samplers and the Mac™ editing software. This

is known as ‘buss contention’ and what is happening is that because more than one

device has the same SCSI ID, the buss doesn’t know which device to choose and so gets

confused.
