Song Import

You can convert songs created on a VS-1680/880/880EX/
840/840EX/890 or VSR-880 for use in the VS-1824 and copy
them as new songs to the current drive. This is called "Song
Import."
When VS-1680, VS-880/880EX, VS-890 or VSR-880 song data
is converted, all the data such as mixer settings including EQ
(where applicable) and Channel Link, system settings such as
sync track and tempo map, locators and markers and effect
settings will be copied.
VS-840/840EX song data recorded on Zip disks only includes
the performance data (audio) and information describing the
tracks on which the performance data is recorded. Therefore,
mixer settings such as EQ and Channel Link, locators and
markers and effect settings are not imported.
* You can only create a song using Song Import that has the
same sample rate and recording mode as the source song.
* If there is insufficient free space on the current drive, Song
Import cannot be carried out.
The procedure for importing a playable copy of a song from
a Zip disk is explained below. If you wish to import song
data created by using Song Copy Archive or DAT backup,
proceed to Step 3.
