Copyright

853

• Do not use this unit for purposes that could 

infringe on a copyright held by a third party. 
Roland assumes no responsibility whatsoever 
with regard to any infringements of third-
party copyrights arising through your use of 
this unit.

851

• Unauthorized recording, distribution, sale, 

lending, public performance, broadcasting, or 
the like, in whole or in part, of a work (musical 
composition, video, broadcast, public perfor-
mance, or the like) whose copyright is held by 
a third party is prohibited by law.

852a

• When exchanging audio signals through a 

digital connection with an external instrument, 
this unit can perform recording without being 
subject to the restrictions of the Serial Copy 
Management System (SCMS). This is because 
the unit is intended solely for musical 
production, and is designed not to be subject 
to restrictions as long as it is used to record 
works (such as your own compositions) that 
do not infringe on the copyrights of others. 
(SCMS is a feature that prohibits second-
generation and later copying through a digital 
connection. It is built into MD recorders and 
other consumer digital-audio equipment as a 
copyright-protection feature.)

Additional Precautions

***

• To create your original audio CD with Roland 

VS series and CDR-88RW-3, you need an 
internal IDE hard disk (HDP88 series).

552

• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore 

the contents of data that was stored on a DAT 
recorder or disk drive (hard disk, Zip disk, 
etc.) once it has been lost. Roland Corporation 
assumes no liability concerning such loss of 
data.

553

• Use a reasonable amount of care when using 

the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; 
and when using its jacks and connectors. 
Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

556

• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, 

grasp the connector itself—never pull on the 
cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, 
or damage to the cable’s internal elements.

557

• A small amount of heat will radiate from the 

unit during normal operation.

558a

• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to 

keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels. 
You may prefer to use headphones, so you do 
not need to be concerned about those around 
you (especially when it is late at night).

559a

• When you need to transport the unit, package 

it in the box (including padding) that it came 
in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use 
equivalent packaging materials.
