Song management Exchanging song data with the AW4416/AW2816 You can back up an AW16G song in a format that is compatible with the AW4416/AW2816. Conversely, a song that was backed up by the AW4416/2816 can be restored into the AW16G. Note Only the audio data recorded in a song can be exchanged with the AW4416/2816. Mix parameters, libraries, and system data cannot be backed-up/restored in this way. ■ Backing up an AW16G song in a format compatible with the AW4416/ AW2816 If you turn on the AS AW2816 button in the BACKUP page of the CD screen, the data will be saved in the AW2816 backup file format. An AW2816 backup file can be restored into an AW2816 or an AW4416 (version 2.0 or later). For the procedure, refer to "Backing up songs or sample libraries," earlier in this manual. Note • Backup in the AW2816 backup file format is limited to one song at a time. • When you perform a backup in the AW2816 backup file format, data other than the audio tracks will not be backed up. All virtual tracks of tracks 1-16 will be backed up. For the stereo track, only the current track will be backed up. ■ Restoring AW4416/AW2816 songs 1 Insert CD-R/RW media containing the AW4416/AW2816 song backup into the AW16G. 2 In the Work Navigate section, press the [CD] key. The CD screen will appear. 3 Repeatedly press the [CD] key or hold down the [CD] key and use the CURSOR [ ]/[ ] keys to access the RESTORE page. 4 Make sure that the cursor is located at the READ CD INFO button, and press the [ENTER] key. Data will be read from the inserted CD-R/RW media. When the data has been read, a screen like the following will appear. 5 Turn the [DATA/JOG] dial to select a song that you want to restore. 6 Move the cursor to the ENABLE/DISABLE button and press the [ENTER] key. The symbol at the right of the data will change to ●, and the data will be selected for restoring. Note The list will show all the songs that were backed up to CD-R/RW media, but you can execute the restore operation only for 44.1 kHz/16-bit songs. 7 Repeat steps 5 and 6 to select all of the AW4416/AW2816 songs that you want to restore. 8 To execute the restore operation, move the cursor to the EXECUTE button and press the [ENTER] key. The restore operation will begin. While the song data is being loaded, a popup window will indicate the progress. 148
