FILE DIRECTORY STRUCTURE

Repeater stores information on the CFC in a hierarchical format:

F:\Electrix\Repeater\Loop001ÉÉLoop999\track1.wav

Each loop folder contains up to 9 files, of which there are three possible file types:

< .wav > - the .WAV file contains the content for each track is the standard 16 bit 44.1kHz format. Loop start and
end locations are marked with region markers.

< .ldf > - a Loop Data File is a proprietary file that contains parameter data for the loop and the status of each track.
Please do not mess with the contents of this file.

< .tdf > - a Track Data File contains proprietary information about
the content of the track. Repeater uses this data to optimize time
stretching and pitch shifting operations. Don't mess with this
eitherÉ. see aboveÉ

A typical 4 track loop will look like this:

Please do not rename any of the files inside a loop folder. Repeater
will not recognize files or folders that do not conform to its strict
file structure.

The .WAV files are standard files and are compatible with many PC
based audio applications. Each of the four tracks are exactly the
same length.

COPYING BETWEEN C O M PACT FLASH CARDS

There are two basic ways to copy data between CFC's:

1. Copy using Repeater's internal memory

¥ Select the Loop you wish to copy.

¥ Press Copy and use the Tempo knob to select the destination Loop number.

¥ Press Record to execute.

2. Copy using a PC with a CFC reader

- Simply copy the contents of a card onto a local drive on your PC. Here you can rename each folder (within

Repeater's naming convention of course!) to re-organize a new set of loops for a new card. Now copy the fold-
ers onto the card into the Electrix\Repeater\ directory.
