Chapter 13 Song management This chapter explains how to perform song management operations such as copying, deleting, backing up, and restoring songs. About songs On the AW16G, your recorded compositions are managed in units called "songs." When you save a song on the hard disk, the audio data, the sample data used by the quick loop sampler, scene memories, and the data for each library are all stored together. By loading a saved song, you can return it to the original condition at any time. You can store as many songs on the internal hard disk as its capacity allows. Each song can occupy a maximum of 6.4 GB. The songs stored on the hard disk consist of a setup area that stores various settings (fixed at approximately 4.3 MB) and a data area that stores the audio data (the size of this will depend on the amount of data that you recorded. ● Song (maximum 6.4 GB for one song) ● Setup area (fixed at approximately 4.3 MB) - Recorder section settings (SONG screen, TRACK screen) - Mixer section settings (each channel and effect) - Quick Loop Sampler section settings - Libraries (except for the sample library) - REMOTE screen settings ● System area - UTILITY screen settings - Sample library - Data management area Internal hard disk (approximately 20 GB maximum) ● Data area (increases or decreases according to the recorded amount) - Audio data for 16 x 8 virtual tracks - Audio data for the stereo track audio data - Pad track event data - Undo/redo data - Sample data for the Quick Loop Sampler - Sound clip audio data.
