Importing and exporting tracks

You can import and export individual tracks to and from a PC via the
FAT partition. The files used for track import and export are 16-bit
44.1kHz mono WAV format (and must have the .WAV extension).
Audio in other formats intended for import must be converted before
they can be imported to the DP-01.

Importing a track

Before you start, make sure that you have selected the partition con-
taining the song to which you want to import the track, and that the
song is loaded.
1
Connect the DP-01 to the PC, and "open" the drive (""Open" and
"Close"" on page 45).
2
Use the PC operating system to copy the WAV file from the PC to the
directory of the DP-01 FAT partition.

The DP-01 reads the file from the FAT partition into the track, with
the start of the file at the "zero" position in the song.
Once the file has been read into the track, it can be edited (moved,
copied, etc.) like any other recorded track. See "About track editing"
on page 50.

Advanced techniques
Although shorter file
names are shown
with spaces on the DP-01 display,
the actual file names on disk do not
contain these spaces.
Make sure the tar-
get track is an
empty track. You cannot import a
track unless the target track is
empty.
