METADATA
The audio files recorded with the SX62R embeds metadata in both BWF and iXML format. Some metadata
can be either pre-settled when the SX62R is in Recorder Ready mode or edited post-recording when the unit
is in Player mode. Editing metadatas is not possible while recording.
Editing the metadata is spread over several pages; available metadata fields depend on the operating mode.
The first page shows two editable fields: the [SCENE] name which can contain up to 8 characters and the
[TAKE NR] which is fixed to 3 numerical digits. As soon as the Scene name is changed, the TAKE nr is reset
to 001. When typing a Scene name that already exits, the TAKE nr is automatically set to the next available
value in the Working Day folder for that particular Scene name.

NOTE 1:
Setting a new Project name will create a new directory at the root level of the hard disk and
of the CF Card, all subsequently recorded files are then stored in the "working day's"
subdirectory(ies) that belong to that particular project.
NOTE 2:
when "Wild Track is enabled, all subsequently recorded files will be tagged as "Wild
Track"; the symbol
is posted on the main modulometger's screens warning the user
that the wild track tag is enabled. Recorded audio files are notified with the suffix "W" in the
[BROWSE FILE] menu.
