Saving the current song
Here’s how to save the current song (the song that you
are currently operating) on the internal hard disk. Be
aware that if you turn off the power of the AW2816
without saving the current song, any changes in the
data of the current song will be lost.
Tip!
When turning off the power of the AW2816, you must
perform the shut-down operation (
→
P.12). When you
execute shut-down, the current song will be saved
automatically.

Press the [SONG] key
→
[F1] key.
The Song List page will appear, in which you can
save or load songs. The list in the center of the
display shows the songs that are currently saved
on the internal hard disk.
The song that is highlighted in the list indicates
the current song. The following information is
shown in the columns of the list.
• SONG NAME .... The first sixteen characters of
the song name
• SAVED AT.......... The date and time at which
the song was last saved
• SIZE................... The size of the song
• BIT/FS ............... The number of bits and sam-
pling frequency of the song
• PRT ................... Protect status
Tip!
• The SONG NAME column displays the name that
was assigned when the new song was created. You
can edit this song name as necessary (
• The size of the song displayed in the SIZE column
indicates the size of the audio data stored in the
data area of the song (

P.147). (This does not
include the size of the system area.)

If instead of pressing the [SONG] key in step 1, you
hold down the [SHIFT] key and press the [SONG] key,
the Song List page will appear, and the cursor will
automatically move to the SAVE button. This method
can be used as a shortcut when saving the current
song.
When you save the current song, it will always be
overwritten onto the previously-saved song. If you
want to keep the previously-saved song, create a
duplicate of the current song (
