IMPORTANT NOTES
291a
In addition to the items listed under "USING THE UNIT SAFELY" on page 2–3, please read and observe
the following:

Power Supply

307
• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the
power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/
or damage to speakers or other devices.
Placement
351
• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment
containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To
alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or
move it farther away from the source of interference.
352a
• This device may interfere with radio and television reception.
Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
352b
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices,
such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit.
Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or
while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you
should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater
distance from this unit, or switch them off.
354a
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices
that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or
otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Excessive
heat can deform or discolor the unit.
355b
• When moved from one location to another where the temper-
ature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or
malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in
this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must
allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has
completely evaporated.
Maintenance
401a
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or
one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove
stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-
abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit
thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
402
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind,
to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Copyright
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.)
853
• Do not use this unit for purposes that could infringe on a
copyright held by a third party. We assume no responsibility
whatsoever with regard to any infringements of third-party
copyrights arising through your use of this unit.

Additional Precautions

552
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of
data that was stored on a storage device (e.g., hard disk) 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.
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.
562
• Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using
some other make of connection cable, please note the
following precautions.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use
cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this
unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to
be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information
on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of
the cable.
563
• Unauthorized duplication, reproduction, hiring, and lending
prohibited.
564
• Before you open the included CD-ROM, you must read the
"license agreement". Opening the CD-ROM will be taken
to mean your acceptance of the license agreement.
986
• Although Roland has tested numerous configurations, and
has determined that on average, a computer system similar
to that described above will permit normal operation of the
UA-1X, Roland cannot guarantee that a given computer
can be used satisfactorily with the UA-1X based solely on the
fact that it meets the above requirements. This is because
there are too many other variables that may influence the
processing environment, including differences in mother-
board design and the particular combination of other devices
involved.
