Chapter 7: Transfer Station

The R-1 Transfer Station archives R-1 recordings in the non-proprietary AES-31 format

for later use in any AES-31 compliant recorder, storage on a server, and back up like oth-

er types of critical data. The Transfer Station performs the backup archiving tasks of the

R-1 so the R-1 can continue to record during a session.

The Transfer Station has many of the same features found in the R-1, such as editing

and moving audio clips, but does not play or record audio.

CAUTION:The Transfer Station software cannot be installed on the same computer

7.1

The Transfer Station imports and exports AES-31 to and from R-1 Audio Titles. The

Transfer station can be utilized as an audio archival station, a backup station, or an au-

dio editor.

7.1.1

The Transfer Station can export audio recorded onto an R-1 to removable media or a

network. When placed on removable media, the archive can be placed in a suitable stor-

age area. On a network the files can be managed by the network administrator and

shared with other playback devices that read AES-31 titles.

7.1.2

When using the Transfer station for backup tasks, the engineer exports all AES-31 and

R-1 titles used for the session from the Transfer Station to the R-1. At the end of each

day's session, the engineer performs the same procedure with the replace existing au-

dio parameter unchecked. This exports any new audio to their respective folders, re-

places the last AES-31 titles with new ones, and also replaces R-1 titles with newer

versions. This archive would then be considered the safety backup of the session with

the R-1 disks functioning as the masters.

NOTE: When using the Transfer Station as a backup station, it is imperative

that the correct Export To folder be selected, other wise the audio may

be duplicated more than once.
