Model D2424LVmkII Reference Manual (Saving and Loading Song Data)

Saving and Loading Song Data

The unit allows you to save song data of a selected program (audio data + setup data) to an external audio
recorder (DAT, adat, etc.) or a CompactFlash
be loaded to the unit. By temporarily saving data of a finished or unfinished song to an external medium you
can load it to the unit later for editing, additional recording, etc. You can also save a song to a DOS formatted
CompactFlash TM card as a WAV file, which also can be edited using a computer.
Furthermore, by installing the optional E-IDE hard disk instead of the pre-installed CF drive, you can save
song data to the hard disk in the FDMS-3 Ver.3.0 or WAV format. (To install the optional E-IDE hard disk, the
optional Model 9044 (bay + caddy) must be mounted.)
The data format and time required to SAVE/LOAD song data will vary between saving and loading with a
DAT using S/P DIF digital signals, saving and loading with an adat device using adat digital signals, or
saving and loading with a CompactFlash
S/PDIF digital signal (You can save and load each Program individually.):
Following about five seconds of pilot signal (shown in the diagram below), song data in the current drive
is output to a connected DAT. Two tracks of audio data (shown in black in the diagram) are output.
To save data from Real tracks 1-24, two-track data will be output twelve times, which takes twelve as much
time as the song duration (ABS 0 to REC END). To save all data including Additional tracks 1-56, two-track
data will be output twenty eight times, which takes twenty eight times the song duration. Saved data is also
loaded two tracks at a time.
adat digital signal (You can save and load each Program individually.):
After about five seconds of pilot signal (shown in gray in the diagram below), song data in the current
drive is output to a connected adat. Eight-track audio data (shown in black in the diagram) is output.
To save the data from Real tracks 1-24, data will be output three times, which takes the same amount of
time as the song duration (ABS 0 to REC END).
To save all data including Additional tracks 1-56, eight-track data will be output seven times, which takes
seven times the song duration. Saved data is also located eight tracks at a time.
CompactFlash TM
(You can save and load each Program individually or all program.)
All Real track data and Additional track data is output simultaneously to a CompactFlash
E-IDE hard disk drive) as shown in black in the diagram. Therefore, saving and loading a Program takes
much less time relative to a DAT or adat. No pilot signal or beep is recorded. You can also save/load WAV
files in DOS formatted disk.
