Transfering Files to a Computer
QuickTime files on PIX formatted storage volumes (2.5” drive, CF card, or any external storage
device) can be copied to a computer by removing the storage device from the PIX recorder and con-
necting it to a computer. Storage devices formatted with the PIX recorder use the exFAT filesystem.
(
See “File Storage”, page 49
)
The Firewire 800 and USB 3.0 connectors on the PIX-CADDY are disabled when the PIX-CADDY is
attached to the PIX recorder. When attaching the PIX-CADDY to a computer, either the Firewire 800
or the USB 3.0 connection must be used; Not both.
Sound Devices recommends first copying files from the 2.5” drive or CF card to the computer first
and then editing the files. It is not recommended to edit files directly off of the 2.5” drive or CF card.
Do not copy files from a computer (or any other host device) to a drive that is intended to be used by the
PIX recorder. If this occurs, it is advisable to format the drive with the PIX recorder before making new
recordings.
