Transferring Song, Audio & Kit Data Numbering Files to be Transferred Before transferring a file to your DTX502, a number indicating the destination User song, audio file, or kit must be added at the start of the file name using your computer. Original file name Add a number to the start of the file name on your computer Modified file name sample.mid 085 sample.mid 085sample.mid  Transferring song data Song data files have an extension of .mid. Before transferring them to your DTX502, add a three digit number between 061 and 100 at the start of the file name. For example, in order to transfer the song data file sample.mid to User song No. 85 on your DTX502, you should rename it "085sample.mid". NOTE • User songs on the DTX502 are numbered from 61 to 100. • If transferring multiple song data files at the same time, be sure to assign a different number to each of them. • Your DTX502 only accepts song data in the form of a standard MIDI file (SMF) of format 0 or 1. When you transfer an SMF of format 1, it will be automatically converted to format 0 by the drum trigger module. • SMFs with less than 96 subdivisions per quarter note cannot be used.  Transferring audio data Audio data files have an extension of .wav or .aif. Before transferring them to your DTX502, add a two digit number between 01 and 20 at the start of the file name. For example, in order to transfer the audio data file sample.wav to Wave Voice No. 9 on your DTX502, you should rename it "09sample.wav". NOTE • Wave Voices (voice category W) on your DTX502 are numbered from 1 to 20. • If transferring multiple audio data files at the same time, be sure to assign a different number to each of them. • Audio files with a bit depth other than 16-bit cannot be used. In addition, these audio files must have a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz, and if necessary, you should use a DAW application or the like to convert to this sampling rate in advance.  Transferring kit data Kit data files have an extension of .bin. Before transferring them to your DTX502, add a three digit number between 051 and 100 at the start of the file name. For example, in order to transfer the kit data file UserKit.bin to User kit No. 72 on your DTX502, you should rename it "072UserKit.bin". NOTE • User kits on the DTX502 are numbered from 51 to 100. • If transferring multiple kit data files at the same time, be sure to assign a different number to each of them. • If you wish to modify the name of the kit itself, please use your DTX502 to do so.
