Folder operations

Select the desired folder on the

BROWSE

screen, and press

the ENTER/MARK button to open the following pop-up

menu.

Use the DATA wheel to select the desired item from the

following options, and press the ENTER/MARK button to

execute it.

SELECT
Returns to the Home Screen and selects the first take in

the folder. This folder becomes the new playback area

regardless of the previous playback area setting. New

recorded takes are saved in this folder.

CREATE
A pop-up appears to confirm that you want to create a

new folder.

Press the ENTER/MARK button to create a new folder. New

recorded takes are saved in this folder.
Press the MARK (

Â) button to cancel folder creation and

reopen the pop-up menu.

ALLDEL
A pop-up appears to confirm that you want to delete all

the takes in the selected folder at once.
Press the ENTER/MARK button to erase the takes and

return to the

BROWSE

screen. Press the MARK (

Â)

button to cancel deletion and reopen the pop-up menu.

NOTE

This unit cannot delete write-protected files and files

that the unit does not recognize.

REBUILD
A pop-up appears to confirm that you want to rebuild the

selected folder.

Rebuilding refreshes the take information inside the

selected folder, and recognizes files that are not contained

in takes as independent takes, making their playback

possible. Use this function after you have copied files to

the SD card from a computer, for example.
Press the ENTER/MARK button to rebuild the folder and

return to the

BROWSE

screen.

Press the MARK (

Â) button to cancel rebuilding and

reopen the pop-up menu.
Moreover, if file names have been added according to the

following rules, multiple files will automatically be regis-

tered as a single take. However, this does not mean that

their formats (WAV/BWF or MP3), sampling frequencies,

bit depths (for WAV/BWF files), bit rates (for MP3 files), file

types (mono or stereo) and file sizes will all be the same.
