13 - Exchanging Data with a Computer
By connecting this unit to a computer using the included
USB cable, you can backup song data from an SD card
in the unit to a computer and restore backed-up song
data from a computer to the card. In addition, you can
export track files and stereo master files from songs to the
computer, as well as import audio files from the computer
to the unit.
Backed-up data can be restored to a different DP-32 unit
than the one that created it. In other words, files can be
freely exchanged between DP-32 units, making it easy to
add additional recordings or mix existing recordings in
different location.
CAUTION
If you want to remove an SD card from this unit and
back up its data on a computer using a card reader,
always turn off the unit's power before removing the
card.
NOTE
In this chapter, "computer" refers to a Windows or Macintosh
personal computer connected to this unit. (See "Operating
system requirements" in the following section.)
The following types of data can be transferred from this
unit to a computer.
ª
Entire songs
You can transfer the data for an entire song from the
unit's MUSIC folder to a computer. This operation is called
"backing up". In addition, data backed up on a computer
can be transferred to the MUSIC folder, and then restored
as a song file. This operation is called "restoring".
ª
WAV format tracks
Export specified track files as WAV files to the AudioDepot
folder of the SD card. In addition, you can import specified
track files by storing WAV files from a computer in the
AudioDepot folder beforehand.
In other words, data transfer between the computer and
track files is carried out through the AudioDepot folder.
ª
Master file
A master file created on this unit can be transferred to
a computer as a stereo WAV file (from the "Song name"
folder inside the MUSIC folder).
Only export of the master file is possible.
Operating system requirements
You can connect this unit to computers with the following
operating systems.
ª
Windows
Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7
ª
Mac OS X
Mac OS X 10.2 or later
When this unit is connected to a computer, the computer
recognizes it as a removable disk. There is no need for a
special driver.
NOTE
Data transfer between this unit and a computer occurs at
USB 2.0 speed (maximum). Data can still be transferred if
the computer connection is USB 1.1, but it will be slower. In
addition, to assure USB 2.0 speed, use a cable that meets USB
2.0 standards.
Connecting to a computer
When connected to a computer via USB, this unit's record,
playback and other recorder functions cannot be used.
To connect with a computer, use a mini-B-type USB 2.0
cable to connect the USB port on the rear panel of the
unit with a USB port on the computer.
It does not matter whether you turn the unit's power ON
before or after the USB connection is made.
When this unit is ON, enable the USB connection with the
USB
item of the
MENU
screen.
The currently loaded song is saved before the USB
connection becomes effective. When connected, the
following screen appears on the display.
After making a USB connection, you must turn the power
on and enable the USB connection in the
USB
item of the
MENU
screen.
This unit appears as an external drive named DP-32 on the
computer's display.
Clicking on the DP-32 drive will display the MUSIC, UTILITY,
and AudioDepot folders.
CAUTION
•
Be sure to use the included TASCAM PS-1225L AC
