1. Log in to the D2424/D2424LV from the personal computer

via the network.

2. Select the program folder to which you are going to put the

file.

If you want to put the file to a new program, create a new
folder. Specify only a program name as the folder name.
You do not need to specify a program number. When you
create a folder to which only the program name is specified,
the recorder automatically adds the program number to the
name (you cannot specify a desired program number).

Functions of the recorder

Creates the "CCC" folder.

By updating the FTP application
window in which the folder con-
tents are shown, the newly cre-
ated folder "CCC_03" appears.

Creates a new pro-
gram "CCC".
A program number is
assigned (for example,
"03" is assigned).

<Example of creating a new folder>

1. A file name must be "tr (track number).wav". Other file

names cannot be accepted.

2. Only a mono-track, 16/24-bit, 96/88.2/48/44.1-kHz WAV

file can be transferred (for both direction).

3. If a track WAV file, which has the different quantization bit

size from the recorder's hard disk format, is sent to the
recorder from a personal computer using FTP, it is not
accepted. For example, you cannot store 24-bit file data to a
16-bit formatted hard disk on the recorder using FTP.

4. If a track WAV file, whose Fs is different from the track data

already stored on the recorder's hard disk, is sent to the
recorder from a personal computer using FTP, the file is
stored with the original Fs. Therefore, when the program is
played back, only the associated track is played back as if it
is pitch-controlled. For example, if you store 48-kHz data
for track 16 ("tr16.wav") to an existing program with
44.1-kHz track data, track 16 is stored with 48-kHz data.

5. If the combination of the program name which is set as the

folder name and program number does not match the data
stored in the recorder, you cannot store the file. In such a
case, update the personal computer monitor window which
shows the folder contents of the FTP application, then carry
out the store operation again.

6. Because the permission of existing track files on the recorder

is read-only, you cannot overwrite the file. Each track data
in a program is stored as an individual WAV file, therefore,
you can store only a WAV file of the track whose WAV file
does not exist on the recorder. For example, if WAV files for
tracks 1 through 10 on the program are stored, you can
store the track 11 WAV file ("tr11.wav.").
