directory using COPY ORIGINAL with the addition of the FILE FORMAT CONVERT option.
If the FILE FORMAT CONVERT option is enabled, only linear 16-bit files with sample rates up to

The Format Disk utility is used to prepare disk drives or memory cards for use in DigiCart/EX.
Format Disk works only on local disks, not on networked disks. Memory cards must be formatted
before they can be used with DigiCart/EX.
The internal hard disk used in DigiCart/EX is factory formatted as one logical disk, but you may
choose to re-format it with up to five partitions. The advantage of this is that there will be ten
directories and 10,000 Cut Indexes possible per partition; it does not increase the total recording
time available. Note that this choice should be made before initial use. If you want to keep the
demo cuts copy them to a memory card. If you choose to create more than two partitions, this will
reduce the number of Network Drives that can be mounted. For example, by creating four
partitions, the internal hard drive will occupy drive numbers 1,2,3 and 4, leaving only 5 and 6 to
mount Network Drives. See Allocation of Logical Drives below.

Use care during format operations. Formatting is an irreversible process and destroys all previous
data
on the disk or memory card. Also note that when formatting the internal disk, all logical drive
partitions on that disk will be formatted at the same time.
