Roland Clan Forums

Just wondering if anyone can help me here?
I've recently bougtht an MV880 & have found a couple of issues that need to be addressed : there are a number of projects already on the machine which are 'protected'....and these have a picture of a small padlock after the name of the project in the project folder which shows they are 'locked' or 'protected' !
After following the instructions on page M-237 of the owners manual all I got was an error message which says : Song is protected. !!!
I cannot find a way to unlock & delete the song.
I was also doing some ordinary audio recording with an acoustic guitar but found that the recording 'stopped' with an error message after about 230 measures which says : Wav memory full ?.......what would cause this 7 what would be the way to fix this issue.
I thought maybe it's because there are quite a few projects taking up valuable space on the hard drive ?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
jD.

Wav memory. You know RAM. You need to expand the ram to 512.

The project that is locked is probably a default project. You just need to turn the project protect off.

Many thanks for your reply....i'll look into the 'expansion' thing via the roland store over here .....about turning off the the 'protect project key' i already hunted all over the board & manual but nothing jumped out at me those times but i'll try again.
Thanks again,
jD.

Have a look at the owners manual page M-236 ‘Protecting a Project’
But basically ….
Press PROJECT
Select SET PROJ PROTECTION icon
Then select the relevant project from the list
Press F5 (Protection Off)

Thanks Bighare,
I'll definately give that a try when i get back to town.
Your response/help is greatly appreciated.
Pleased to meet you here.
