The Export page allows you to save one sample or song object per Þle. Choose the format you
wish to save in, and press the corresponding soft button. For AIFF and WAVE, only sample
objects are listed. For MIDI Type 0, only song objects are listed. Scroll to the object that you
wish to save, and press OK. The dialog will proceed the same as if you were saving a K2vx Þle.
You will be prompted for a Þle name, and will have the option to select a different default
directory to save the Þle in.
The K2vx will automatically place a standard extension on the Þle when it is created on the
disk. These extensions are sometimes necessary when transferring Þles to external programs
that can recognize the Þle format based on the extension. They also help you to recognize what
Þles are of a what format when looking at a directory listing. You can use the Find Files utility
(Disk Mode->Util->Find) to search for Þles that match a certain extension. The standard
extensions used on the Þles are:
.AIF
.WAV
.MID
The Þrst time you enter the Export page after powering on (or after a soft-reset of the K2vx), the
format defaults to AIFF. After that, the K2vx remembers the most recent format that you used.
For example if you save a MIDI Type 0 Þle, and then go back to the Song Mode page to record
more sequences, the next time you return to the Export page, the Þle format will still be set to
"MIDI", and all of the song objects will be listed. You can audition the samples and songs the
same way as you would on the Save Object or Object Utility pages (by pressing the Left or the
Right cursor buttons on the front-panel.).

AIFF and AIFF-C Files

The K2vx can read 8 or 16 bit AIFF Þles, mono or stereo. The sample rate, sustain loop, loop
mode, base note, sample name, and sample detuning are supported. AIFF-C Þles that do not
use compression can also be read by the K2vx. The K2vx will save 16-bit AIFF Þles, either
mono or stereo.

WAVE Files

The K2vx can read 8 or 16 bit WAVE Þles, mono or stereo. WAVE Þles do not support looping.
The K2vx will save 16-bit WAVE Þles, either mono or stereo.

MIDI Type 0 Files

Use this format to transfer a song to and from an external sequencer. Tempo information is
supported. Time Signature is not supported. System Exclusive data is not supported.
