Sd Cards That Can Be Used; With The Br-800 - Roland BR-800 Owner's Manual

SD Cards that Can Be Used with
the BR-800
The BR-800 uses SD cards to record and play back.
■ SD cards that are known to work
If using an SD card other than the included one, refer to the
Roland website (http://www.roland.com/) for the most
recent information on cards that are known to work with
the BR-800.
• The BR-800 supports SD/SDHC cards up to a
maximum of 32 GB.
• Some SD card types or SD cards from some
manufacturers may not record or play
backproperly on the BR-800.
■ Recording time
The following table shows the length of recording that is
possible on a single card.
Recording time
SD card
Normal recording
capacity
(calculated as 1 track)
1GB approx. 520 minutes
2GB approx. 17 hours
4GB approx. 34 hours
8GB approx. 68 hours
16GB approx. 136 hours
32GB approx. 272 hours
• The above recording times are approximate. They
may be slightly shorter depending on the number
of songs created.
• For normal recording, the listed recording times
assume the use of only one track. For example, if
you're using all eight tracks to record, the
available recording time for each track will be 1/
8th of the time listed above.
• The sampling rate is 44.1 kHz. You cannot change
the sampling rate.

■ Formatting an SD card
If you're using a commercially available SD card, you'll
need to format it before use.
Format the card as described in "Initializing an SD Card
(FORMAT)" (p. 137).
■ Removing the card cover
When the BR-800 is shipped from the factory, the card cover
is fastened to the unit using a screw to discourage theft of
the SD card.
