Exporting as an AAF file
8
When exporting as an AAF file, you can export as an
embedded or non-embedded file. When you choose
the File menu “Export Project...” item the export screen
appears. On this screen, you can set whether to export
an embedded AAF file or a non-embedded AAF file. The
difference between embedded and non-embedded files
is explained below.
Embedded AAF files contain all the information and •
audio files for a project. In other words, the entire
project can be stored in a single embedded AAF file
(.aaf). The maximum size of a single AAF file, however,
cannot exceed 2 GB. For this reason, if the total data
of the project exceeds 2 GB (because it has many
tracks and/or very long clips), you must export it as
a non-embedded AAF. If you try to export a project
that is larger than 2 GB as an embedded AAF, an error
message will appear and exporting will be canceled.
Non-embedded AAF files only contain the project
•
information. When you export this way, a folder that
contains all the audio files will also be created. As with
embedded AAF files, the maximum size is 2 GB, but this
limitation has no practical effect since non-embedded
AAF files do not contain audio files.
Copying a Project
You can make a copy of a project with the X-48MKII, for
instance as a backup to another drive. This copies the
project and all of its wave recordings, unlike Save As...
which only copies the project file.
Mouse/Keyboard Operation
1 Click on the File menu and select File Manager or
press Ctrl-F on the keyboard.
2 You should see the File Manager window with two
panes on the left and right. In the left hand pane,
navigate to the project folder you want to copy
(containing the .ndr file and Audio folder). Click on
this folder so it’s highlighted.
3 Using the controls on the right side, navigate
to where you want to copy the project to, i.e. a
removable eSATA hard drive.
4 When you’re ready to begin copying, press the
>> button under the word Copy between the two
panes.
Front Panel Operation
