Exporting a stereo master
track
You can export a stereo master track that you
have made on the unit (see “Mastering” on
page 48) to a computer. When you create a
new stereo master track for a song, the existing
stereo master track is overwritten, so if you
want to keep multiple different stereo master
tracks, you might want to save them to a
computer.
Before starting the following export
procedures, make sure that the song that you
want to export a stereo master track for is
currently loaded and that you have already
created a stereo master track for it.

A stereo master track file is exported as
