MANUAL ADDENDUM
OPERATING SYSTEM UPDATES
The RE32 allows new operating system files to be loaded and saved into the unit’s Flash ROM
from a Mac HFS format disk connected to one of the DD/DR machines in the system.
If you have access to a Macintosh (or a PC with Mac HFS disk mounting software), you can use
this function to download new operating system files from the Akai web-site and install them on
your RE32.
Note: To use this function, the Mac HFS format disk containing the new RE32 operating system
file must be connected to an Akai DD/DR series machine with at least the following (or later)
version of software:
DD8/DD1500: Version 3.05 or later.
DR16pro: Version 3.11 or later (to use Mac HFS format CD-ROM disks) ,
or V3.00 (for other types of disk such as hard-disk or MO).
Operating system files are selected for loading from the DIRECTORY page in DISK UTILITIES. To
access this page, press the DISK key followed by DISK UTILS (F5/F6) and select the machine and
disk from which you want to load the operating system file.
After selecting a machine and Mac HFS format disk, pressing DIR (F2) on the DISK UTILITIES
page will display a screen similar to this:
Here, you can see a list of the files on the currently selected disk. There is only one field on this
page on the very top line of the LCD:
FILE TYPE Here you can select the type of file you wish to view. When a Mac HFS
format disk is selected, the file type available are OMF FILES, PT3.2,
PT 4, PT 24 and O/S FILES.
If there is a long filelist, arrows will appear to the right of the screen to
indicate that there are files ‘below’ or ‘above’ the screen that you may
access.
Pressing SELECT DISK (F1/F2) changes the screen to allow you to select a different disk or
machine.
To select a new operating system file for loading, use the DATA +/- keys to select O/S FILE for the
FILE TYPE and you will see a screen similar to the following:
Files are selected by using the cursor keys to move around the list and they are highlighted when
selected.
Note: The default name for new operating system files for the RE32 is “RE32.BIN”. This will be
the name of any operating system files downloaded from the Akai web-site.
