About files, folders and memory
■
Files and folders
One recorded session on the recorder is called a
“file.” Files are stored in a location called a “folder.”
A file is stored in one of the following folders in the
recorder’s internal memory or on the microSD card.
MIC (A–D) / MIC_(A–D)_SD:
These folders store audio files (in WAV or MP3 for-
mat) recorded by the unit. There are four folders (A–
D). You can organize the files by folders. For exam-
ple, you can store musical performance files in folder
A and conference recording files in folder B so that it
will be easier for you to find desired files later.
LINE (L) / LINE (L)_SD:
These folders store files recorded from external
devices via the line connection.
MUSIC (M):
This folder stores music and other audio files (in
MP3 or WMA format) transferred from a connected
computer.
• PLIST1 – 5.M3U (P1–5)
The recorder offers five Playlist files (P1–5). You
can play your favorite songs in your preferred
order by creating Playlists using the files stored in
the MUSIC folder.
RECYCLE ( ):
This is the Recycle Bin folder.
DATA:
This folder stores data files. You can use the recorder
as a flash drive. (The recorder does not display the
folder name. You can view it only via a connected
computer.)
MANUAL:
This folder stores the Owner’s Manual and Reference
Manual in PDF format. These manual files are orga-
nized in sub-folders by language. (The recorder does
not display the folder name. You can view it only via
a connected computer.)
If you initialize the internal memory, the MANUAL
folder will be erased in its entirety. If necessary,
download the latest manuals in PDF format from the
following website:

■
Memory
In addition to the internal memory, you can also use
a microSD card for recording and playback.
As long as neither the maximum recording time nor
maximum number of files is exceeded, you can use
any folders and store any number of files in each folder.
