Track Import (Importing an Audio File)

This operation lets you convert an audio file (WAV or AIFF format) from
your computer into track data.

perform this operation.

reader, copy the audio file (WAV or AIFF format) from the SD
card's "/ROLAND/IMPORT" folder.
2. Insert the SD card into the JUNO-Gi, and switch on the
JUNO-Gi's power.

import.

EXPORT" folder. These are shown in the list as "EXPORT/file name. "
