5 – FILE LIST

Explanation of folder structure

This unit manages audio files in audio folders.
Each SD/CF card has an "HS Files" folder that holds audio folders

that contain audio files (which are called "takes") in groups.

Folder structure

The folder structure is as shown below.
You can check the SD/CF card folder and file structure by

accessing it from a computer using a card reader, for example.
Be aware, however, if you change or erase files inside a folder,

or change any names, the unit might not be able to play the

contents of that folder.

NOTE

Other management files and folders are also created.

File names

The format used in naming files is as follows.
[Take name first half]-[letter][take number].wav
