• Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any
• Please be aware that all data contained in the unit's
device that will generate line noise (such as an electric
motor or variable lighting system).
memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs.
Important data should always be written down on paper.
During repairs, due care is taken to avoid the loss of data.
However, in certain cases (such as when circuitry related
to memory itself is out of order), we regret that it may not
be possible to restore the data, and Roland assumes no
liability concerning such loss of data.
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.
308
• Although the LCD and LEDs are switched off when the
POWER switch is switched off, this does not mean that the
unit has been completely disconnected from the source of
power. If you need to turn off the power completely, first
turn off the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord
from the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into
which you choose to connect the power cord’s plug
should be one that is within easy reach.
Additional Precautions
• Please be aware that the contents of memory can be
551
irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the
improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against
the risk of losing important data, we recommend that you
periodically write down important data you have stored
in the unit's memory on paper.
Placement

been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability
concerning such loss of data.
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 inter-
ference.
553
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s
352a
buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks
and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
• This device may interfere with radio and television
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.
556
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the
352b
connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you
will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s
internal elements.
• 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 initi-
ating 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.
557
• A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during
normal operation.
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).
355b
• When moved from one location to another where the
temperature 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.
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.
Maintenance
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth
• 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 infor-
mation on cable specifications, contact the manufac-
turer of the cable.

What is a driver?
A “driver” is software that transfers data between the UA-1000 and application
software running on your computer, when your computer and the UA-1000 are
connected by a USB cable. The driver sends data from your application to the UA-
1000, and from the UA-1000 to your application.
