Exporting A Stereo Master Track - Tascam Digital Portastudio DP-03SD Owner's Manual

Exporting a stereo master track

You can export a stereo master track that you have made on
the unit (see "Creating a stereo master track" on page 49) to a
computer. When you create a new stereo master track for a song,
the existing stereo master track is overwritten, so if you want to
keep multiple different stereo master tracks, you might want to
save them to a computer.
Before starting the following export procedures, make sure
that the song that you want to export a stereo master track for
is currently loaded and that you have already created a stereo
master track for it.
