User Guide
IMPORTANT NOTE ON INTERCHANGEABILITY
Because of the new functions introduced in the OS V1.20, the programs created and/or saved
using V1.20 cannot be loaded on the MPC4000 of the previous version software.
Similarly, the programs created and/or saved on the MPC4000 using the OS V1.20 cannot be
loaded into the Z4/Z8 samplers with the OS version V1.16 or earlier.
On the S5000/S6000 samplers, the programs created and/or saved using V1.20 can be loaded
as they are not affected by these changes.
