MAJOR PROBLEM

[tcarnes]

Hey Guys, I have ran into a major problem. I was trying to organize my memory card and can not seem to load it back. I saved all my sample wavs to my computer by taking the card out of the X7 and putting it into my card reader and transfering them to a folder. I then formatted the memory card and tried transferring all the files back to the card in the order I wanted, which it seemed to. But now when i press sample list on my X7 they don't show up and aren't available to LOAD. If I go into File Utility and then card and Roland and Sample, They are there but......
What am I doing wrong. I need these back ASAP. Please Help. Thanks Tim

I've lose all my performances and everything. I'm in trouble. I have a back up on my computer. What do I need to do to restore it? I have tried and get an Illegal File error.

Simply take the data that you copied to the comp folder and copy it back to your memory card. (without messing around with the file order)

Also, make sure you format the memory card from the Fantom, NOT your computer. People have had problems with that in the past.

I have a folder that was made in the original back up process called 'backup'. Do i It is outside of the "Roland" and "Temp" folders. Do I copy that folder to the card or put that folder in the Roland folder or what. I'm not having any luck.

I pretty much figured it out and got most of the stuff back. Thanks for your help.

Same problem here... I made a backup and tried aroudn a little bit with samples, sounds and patches...
Afterwards I made a factory reset and tried to restore the backup...

"illegal file"

I didn't touch anything on the CF card. There is a folder BACKUP on that card...
What can I do? How can I rescue al the data?

Hi,

If there's a folder called BACKUP on the card that means that at some point you've done a system backup on the Fantom.

Put the card in the Fantom, then do the restore procdure given on p.235 of the OM.

Obviously, if you've made changes AFTER the backup ws done you'll lose them. (

Yes, that's what I did that - as I mentioned (sorry for my english). But I always get the message "illegal file"

If you attach the card to your PC can you copy the files to your PC harddrive?

Yup...
