<< Special loading method when using a computer >>
(*) Method to load specific tracks.
The backup disk in which files are saved will contain files from “******01.WAV” up to “******24.WAV.”
Should these files be deleted, moved from the root directory, for example, into a another folder or the
file name changed which cannot be acknowledged, this recorder will not recognize this file.
When a backup disk changed in this manner is loaded, only WAV files with file names “******##.WAV”
which are located in an acknowledgeable root directory can be loaded.
For example, if the “zero number of data” made at save is deleted from the backup disk and then load
is executed, only WAV files recorded with any other sound can be loaded.
(*) When loading WAV files saved in a multiple number of disks, they can be loaded by a special method
derived from the above method.
Assume that there is backup disc 1 saved with “******01.WAV” through “******12.WAV” and disc 2
saved with “******13.WAV” through “******24.WAV.”
First, when backup disk 1 is loaded, files in tracks 1-12 will be loaded. At this point, tracks 13-24 will not
be loaded and thus be non-recorded. Next, when backup disk 2 is loaded, files in tracks 1-12 remains
intact and tracks 13-24 only will be loaded.
< Note>
WAV files which can be saved/loaded by this recorder must have file names written as “******##.WAV.”
Other file names cannot be acknowledged by this recorder.
Unknown file names will not be acknowledged and could cause malfunction. Extreme care should be taken when
changing file names and making folders on a computer.
* The first six letters will be the title shown in the SETUP mode “Title Edit” display.
* The last two letters “##” represent each track number (1-24) of the WAV file which are to be saved/loaded.
* The last “WAV” is the extension which indicate that this is a WAV file.
* File name of the WAV file which is to be saved in the backup disk of this recorder will all be recorded in capital
letters. However, in certain computers, this WAV file name will be displayed in small letters.
(*) Method in loading by changing the track.
If the two letters “##” in file name “******##.WAV” in the backup disk are changed, it will be possible to
load them on this recorder on a track different from that at the initial save. For example, if a WAV file
named “ABCDEF01.WAV” on track 1 is changed to “ABCDEF03.WAV” this WAV file will be loaded on
track 3.
(*) Method in loading by changing the title.
If the 6 letters “******” in file name “******##.WAV” in the backup disk are changed, it will be possible
to load them on this recorder under a title different from that at the first save. Letters which can be
used at changing the file name in a computer are those only indicated below. All of these letters must
be one byte size.
