Track import and export
You can import and export individual tracks between a
computer and this unit using the AudioDepot folder.
Files must be WAV files (with the ".WAV" extension) to be
imported/exported as tracks.
You can import both mono and stereo files, and export
mono files.
If you want to import an audio file of a different format
into this unit, you must convert it to a WAV file first.
Importing tracks
1. Connect the unit to a computer. (See "Connecting
to a computer" on page 76.)
2. Use the computer to copy WAV files to the
AudioDepot folder on the SD card in this unit.
NOTE
The files to be copied must have single-byte alphanumeric
character names. If you try to copy a file with double-byte
characters, it cannot be imported because the file name will
not appear on the display in step 6 below,.
3. Disconnect the unit properly from the
computer, and then unplug the USB cable. (See
"Disconnecting" on page 77.)
4. Press the MENU button to open the
MENU
screen.
5. Use the JOG/DATA dial or the CURSOR (5/b/g/t)
buttons to select (highlight green)
AUDIO DEPOT
,
and then press the F4 (t) button.
WAV files that can be imported appear.
6. Use the JOG/DATA dial or the CURSOR (5/b)
buttons to select the WAV file that you want to
import, and then press the F1 (
IMPORT
) button.
Empty tracks that can be imported appear.
NOTE
• If you are trying to import a WAV file with attributes that
do not match the current song, an error pop-up message
appears. For example, this occurs if the current song is
44.1 kHz and you try to import a 48 kHz WAV file. If there
is no file that can be imported,
FILE NOT FOUND
appears.
• When the file name is short, spaces appear after the file
name, but those spaces are not included in the actual file
name.
7. Use the JOG/DATA dial or the CURSOR (5/b)
buttons to select the track to be imported, and
then press the F4 (t) button.
A confirmation message appears.
NOTE
If the WAV file to be imported is stereo, you must select a
track pair.
8. Press the F2 (
YES
) button to start importing the
file.
NOTE
• If there is not enough space or the file format is wrong, an
error message appears.
• The beginning of the file is set at the start of the song
(
00:00:00:00
). In the same way as with other
recording tracks, you can edit a track with an imported
file. (See "Overview of track Editing" on page 57.)
• To import a stereo WAV file, an empty stereo track is
necessary.
9. Once importing completes, a pop-up window
appears and then the

screen
reopens.
