Copying Files/Disks - Akai DD1500 User Manual

COPYING FILES/DISKS

It is possible to copy data from one disk to another. You may copy individual projects and
libraries or copy the whole disk. Pressing COPY FILE (F3/F4) will give you this screen:
The parameters are:
FROM DISK
TO DISK
COPY TYPE
IMPORTANT NOTE: DUPLICATE WILL FIRST ERASE THE DESTINATION DISK BEFORE
DUPLICATING THE SOURCE DISK TO IT.
FILE TYPE
FILE NAME
NOTE 1: When ALL PROJECTS or ALL LIBRARIES is selected in the COPY TYPE field,
the FILE TYPE and FILE NAME fields are not shown:
NOTE 2: You cannot copy single CLIPS. Clips are copied and moved around within the
DIRECTORY and LIBRARY pages. If you are desperate to copy just one clip to another
disk, first copy or move the clip to a new library and copy that library to the other disk.
NOTE 3: It is not possible to copy from a disk to itself (i.e. from disk 0 to disk 0). You will
receive the prompt: DISK CAN'T BE COPIED TO ITSELF!
