<div> <font size="2">When you load the card and go into instrument assign, are the instruments from the card showing up? They should be at the very end of the list. On mine, I just stick the card in, and the instruments then show up to be assigned, pull it and they're gone. I don't do anything with the card load menu. I have never used the card load menu for ROM, just RAM. I just went and tried it again a few times with a couple of cards (Electronic and Dance, of course!) , and all I did was stick the card in to get the sounds. <br>

<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">Hi all,</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">I’m trying to use my vintage Roland R8 drum with different R8 ROM cards</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">connected at the rear ROM slot connector..</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">I do the Roland procedure which is: Put the R8 OFF, connect the ROM card</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">in the ROM slot, then power up the R8, then go in the card loading menus</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">then I could choose load only <b>sounds</b> OR <b>sound demo</b>.</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">So far I’m unable to load the ROM card sounds on the R8 drum keys but can hear the demo song<br>
if I chose to load the <b>sound demo</b> ...</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">The demo plays all the NEW sounds. Fine.</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">But when I do load the ROM <b>sounds</b> only, the R8 keys keep on still playing the original sounds.</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">I have 4 ROM cards and they all do the same.</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">I read many times the user manual but so far can’t find any solutions..</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">Any body ???</span></div>
<div class="yiv6338641900MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA">Thanks</span></div>
