What you will need to update your RD-300NX
  • RD-300NX
  • USB Memory ( Roland's M-UF2G is recommended )
    * The USB Memory need to be formatted on a RD-300NX.
  • A computer with a USB connector (Windows XP/Vista/7, MacOS X v10.4.3 or later)

Cautions with the update
  • When you perform this update, it will initialize your Live Set that was saved in the User bank.
    You should save the Live Set on a USB memory before you perform the update.
    Refer to the following section from the Owner's Manual for the detailed procedure.
    • Saving a Live Set File ( LIVE SET Save )
    Call up the Live Set from the USB memory after the update completes.
  • We recommend that you back up your Live Set files and Songs stored in the internal memory to a USB memory before you perform the update although RD-300NX keeps the data with normal updating.
    Refer to the following section from the Owner's Manual for the detailed procedure.
    • Copying a Live Set File ( LIVE SET Copy )
    • Copying a Song (SONG Copy)
  • Never apply this update data to any product other than the RD-300NX. This update data may destroy the data or system program of other products.
  • Never power-off your RD-300NX while the update is in progress!
    If a power failure or similar accident occurs during the update process, the RD-300NX won’t be able to start up in normal operating mode. This will require servicing, so you will need to contact Roland service center near you if this occurs.
  • We regret that we are unable to answer questions regarding the update procedure using this system program. Please perform the update responsibly, following the directions given in this document.
