Expanding the memory
The sample memory (RAM) is used for working with audio data in real
time. It has a high speed which allows to play a big number of samples
simultaneously. However, when the power is switched o, the RAM looses it’s
data.
Juno-G’s ash memory (ash RAM) is like a hard drive, it is used for
saving the data, and it can keep it when the power is o. However, ash RAM is
not fast enough for working in realtime.
Thus, keyboards like the Juno-G use both RAM and ash RAM, and to be
able to work with more data you need to expand them both.
The sample RAM can be expanded using a standard DIMM module with
a size of 64 to 512 MB and the following specications: PC100 or PC133, 3.3 V,
168 pin, non-buered, non-EEC. The memory module slot can be reached
under a small lid at the bottom of the Juno-G.
To expand the ash memory, you need a ash card like Compact Flash or
Secure Digital, and a corresponding PC card adaptor. For example, this can be a
Compact Flash card and a Compact Flash to PC card adaptor: the card is
inserted into the adaptor, and the adaptor goes into the PC card slot on the
back of the Juno-G.
After you have installed any new memory, you can check if it works in the
Information → Memory system settings section.
