Before using this unit, carefully read the sections entitled: “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and
“IMPORTANT NOTES” (p. 2; p. 3). These sections provide important information concerning the proper
operation of the unit. Additionally, in order to feel assured that you have gained a good grasp of every
feature provided by your new unit, Owner’s manual should be read in its entirety. The manual should
be saved and kept on hand as a convenient reference.
Main Features
Simplified Panel, Specialized for
Remote Control from Other Devices
Audio Recording System Uses No
Moving Parts
The AR-200S can be used as a dedicated playback
device, which is controlled by means of instructions
from other devices, and which employs phrases
created with the AR-3000/200 and saved on
CompactFlash cards.
The AR-200S uses memory cards in an audio
recording system that has no moving parts. The
system uses no rotating parts or drive mechanism, so
it’s practically maintenance free. It also features
excellent sound quality and superior reliability.
High-Quality Recording and
Playback
A Variety of Control Terminals for a
Wide Range of Playback Methods
Roland’s innovative RDAC system enables high-
quality recording and playback using less data. You
can select recording settings tailored to the usage
circumstances and the capacity of the card, with six
different sampling frequencies and four levels of
signal processing (RDAC-Mode). This ensures
compatibility for recording and playback for a variety
of situations and applications.
The AR-200S features “Control Input Terminals” as
control connectors. This permits connection of
switches, sensors, program timers, and other devices,
enabling control of the unit from another location. In
addition, the AR-200S can be controlled with a
computer via the RS-232C port.
Compact Half-Rack Size Body
All recorded phrases are saved on memory cards,
allowing you to quickly play phrases for any situation,
simply by changing cards.
The 1U half-rack size body takes up practically no
space. The AR-200S can be mounted in any standard
19-inch EIA rack using the optional rack mount
adapter.

Playback Instructions (Control Input Playback)
You can use the control input and DC input screw terminals (CONTROL A)
and the 25-pin D-sub-type control I/O connector (CONTROL B) on the AR-
200S’s rear panel to control the AR-200S from an external device.
This chapter explains how to connect external devices and make the settings
for the AR-200S.
Direct Playback (Normal Playback)
A phrase is played back when a control signal is input directly to the terminal
with the number to which the phrase is assigned. Up to 9 phrases can be
played back.Assign Phrases 1 through 9 beforehand to Port Nos. 1 through 9,
respectively.

Even without connecting to all eight connectors used for making the
binary specifications, you can still conduct Binary Playback. The number
of phrases that can be specified is determined by the formula “two to the
nth power minus one” (with “n” being the number of connectors used).
Example:
SW 1: OFF, SW 2: ON
To Specify Phrases with Binary Signals
Example: Specifying Phrase 112 (Phrase #: 112)
Convert the phrase number to a binary signal number.
“0” (Off), “1” (On)
Using three timers or other such devices capable of outputting the
necessary signals gives two to the third power minus one (i.e., 8 - 1 = 7),
meaning you can specify the seven phrases 001 through 007.
However, start signals feature other special requirements.
According to the Phrase Number / Binary Signal chart (p. 13), the
phrase number “112” is converted to the binary number “01110000.”

The RDAC grade is the type of sampling frequency for digital recording.
On the AR-200S, you can select from among six grades.
What’s RDAC?
RDAC (Roland Digital Audio Coding) is a proprietary audio recording
standard from Roland.
It achieves high sound quality and also makes it possible to record for

Mode to Choose
The optimal grade and mode vary according to the usage conditions,
including the connected equipment, recording source, sound quality,
time, and playback system.

ANNOUNCE
8kHz
STANDARD is best for ordinary recording. ANNOUNCE uses up the least
card space, and is best for recording announcements, narration, and the like.
When you are recording audio such as a narration with ANNOUNCE or
LONG2, you can record with higher clarity by using the equalizer to cut the
bass range. Select an RDAC grade that matches the circumstances of use.
The factory default settings are RDAC-Grade: LONG1; and RDAC-Mode:
MODE1.
First, try recording and playback with these settings. In most cases, this
yields satisfactory sound quality.

Recording Instructions (Terminal Rec)
Recording Type (Stereo/Mono)
Operational Specifications for
Terminal Rec
Select either stereo recording or mono recording.
Choosing mono recording gives you recording times that are twice as long as
with stereo recording.
Phrases are specified by combinations of signals of 0 (Off) and 1 (On) to the
Port Nos. 1 through 8 as well as Port Nos. 11 and 12, and record, playback, and
delete functions are specified with combinations of control signals of 0 (Off)
and 1 (On) to Port Nos. 9 and 10.
Selecting Recording Type
With the power to the AR-200S turned off, set the REC MODE switches on the
bottom panel as shown below.
Presence or Absence of Phrases
If there is a binary-specified phrase that has already been recorded, a signal is
output from the CONT OUT connector (Port No. 15). If there is an empty
phrase, no signal is output.

During Terminal Rec, the CONT OUT connector functions as a connector for
signals confirming the presence or absence of phrases. Note that this differs from
the normal function of CONT OUT.
What is mono recording
fig.CtrIn-Rec02.e
In the case of mono recording, input the audio signal to the “MONO/L” input
terminal. When audio signals are input simultaneously to the “MONO/L” and
“R” input terminals, L and R are mixed and recorded.

Playing Data for Two Units on the Left
and Right (Dual Mono Mode)
The Dual Mono mode is a feature for playing different mono audio phrases
independently on the left and right channels.
By outputting odd-numbered phrases (001, 003, ...) from the left channel and
even-numbered phrases (002, 004, ...) from the right channel, you can play back
two units’ worth of phrases using only the one device.
INPUT
You can also play back separate phrases on the left and right channels either
simultaneously, or shifted.

Troubleshooting
The start of phrase playback is delayed when
playback is controlled from an external device
About playback
•
Has the “Delay Time” been set for the phrase?
Control Input Playback (Direct/Binary) does not
work as intended
Check the AR-3000 to confirm whether or not the delay time has been set.
Check the control signals being sent from the external control device,
connections and so on once more.
•
Make sure the MODE switches’ settings (Direct/Binary) are selected
correctly. You cannot achieve control input playback merely by
connecting a device to the port. Be sure to set the control input mode and
match the method used for connecting to the connectors (p. 22).
Others
No sound
intended
•
•
Reconfirm that the power to the AR-200S or connected device is on.
Reconfirm that the volume control on the AR-200S or connected device is
turned up.
•
When the card is formatted, phrase assignments for Port Nos. 1 through
9 are such that Phrase 001 is assigned to Port No. 1, Phrase 002 to Port
No. 2, and so on up to Phrase 009, which is assigned to Port No. 9. Check
to make sure that the phrases are properly selected.
•
Reconfirm that there are no shorts in any connector cables.
Phrase number flashes during playback
Phrases play repeatedly in Direct Playback
•
Although the AR-200S is not MIDI phrase-compatible, if a specified
phrase is a MIDI phrase, the phrase number will flash.
•
Check to make sure that “INTERVAL PLAYBACK” is not selected with
the MODE switch settings (p. 22).
There is a scraping sound coming from the AR-200S
Card made on the AR-3000
•
In situations such as when control signals are input continuously, the
movement of the internal relays may make a scraping sound, but this
does not indicate any malfunction. To prevent overuse and failure of the
relay, you may also switch to Interval Playback in order to have the relay
move only once (p. 13).
Phrases are not played back (PLAY indicator is
flashing)
•
Is the MTC “Sync Source” set to “MTC?”
When not synchronizing playback with MTC and using the AR-200S as a
slave, set “Sync Source” on the AR-3000 to “Internal.”
The volume of the device connected to the output
connector is low
Pattern phrases and song phrases are not played
back as intended
•
Could you be using a connection cable that contains a resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.
•
Phrases composed from pattern phrases or song phrases will not be
played back properly unless they are saved as actual phrases (if the
composed phrase is not saved, the next phrase is sought and then played
back). Check the AR-3000 to confirm whether or not the composite
phrase has been saved.

Regarding Cards
Card Audio Recording Time Chart
AR-3000 Settings That Can Be Used
The following table shows recording times available for cards formatted for
the AR-3000.
When cards created with an AR-3000 are played back on an AR-200S, the
resulting playback could diverge from the original. This is due to a variety of
factors, including the fact that data created for settings specific to the AR-3000
cannot be used by the AR-200S. For details, see the tables below.
*
Recording times listed are for mono recording. Recording times are halved when
data is recorded in stereo.
*
These times are for when 1 phrase is recorded continuously, and are provided for
your reference when recording. The recording time will depend on the
combination of the grade settings of each phrase recorded in each memory card.
