ENSONIQ Upgrades ASR-10 Operating System

MALVERN, PA, July 25, 1994--An operating system upgrade for ENSONIQ's
ASR-10 Advanced Sampling Recorder provides DAT Backup/Restore capabilities
for hard disk data. The new Version 2.5 Operating System, available free
to ASR-10 owners, provides backup from SCSI storage devices to DAT tape by
way of the DI-10 Digital I/O interface.

The new operating system supports three functions: Backup, Restore, and
Verify. The Backup function saves hard drive data to DAT tape using the
optional digital outputs available for the ASR-10. Restore transfers data
back from tape to the SCSI storage device. The Verify function
automatically reads information after a backup to ensure that copied data
is complete and accurate. It can also be selected as a separate function.
The feature is compatible with any DAT recorder that offers S/PDIF digital
input and output, including the Tascam DA-30, Sony DTC-A7, Dennon DTR-80P,
and most current models.

"Our latest enhancement offers our ASR-10 customers a convenient and
affordable way to back up hard disk drive data," said Steve Claflin, Vice
President of Marketing. "This backup capability is indispensable for
storing and protecting Version 2-based song projects and accommodates
multiple tape storage for larger files.''

The DAT Backup/Restore feature enhances the ASR-10's digital audio
capabilities. The ASR-10's Audio Track capability adds two tracks of
digital audio recording to hard disk or to RAM memory, in addition to its
sampling workstation features.

ASR-10 owners can get Version 2.5 software free through their Authorized
ENSONIQ Dealers. For further information, or the location of the nearest
