Ejecting A Library - Numark DDS80 Reference Manual

EJECTING A LIBRARY

As with a PC or Mac computer it is very important to always eject a storage device
before unplugging it or cutting the power. This ensures that all files are properly
closed and that all data has been saved to the device. Failure to follow this instruction
can cause file system corruption which might render the device unusable (if this
happens, connect the device to your PC or Mac and follow the file system recovery
procedure for your particular operating system – see "Avoiding and Fixing Errors"
section).
To eject a library press the Eject button. This causes a
list of each active library to open...
Each library is listed with its short location name and
longer device name. Identify which library you wish to
eject and move the highlight over it. A message might
appear at the bottom of the work area:
In this case you must stop playback of the track or tracks
from that library before you can eject. This is to prevent
accidental ejection of a library which could be in the mix.
Another warning might appear:
In this case you are warned that some of the tracks in the
crate are stored on the library you have selected. If you
continue to eject these tracks will be removed from the
crate.
To proceed with ejecting select Eject from the menu. If
there are tracks in the crate you will be asked to confirm
the operation. Once the library or libraries for a particular
device have been ejected and are no longer present in
the list it is safe to physically remove the device. If you
have more than one device connected take care to
remove the right one!
If you are going to switch off the player there is no need to eject the libraries first, provided you switch off
by holding the power button for three seconds and not by cutting the power.
