USB Flash Drive
Storing Standard Audio Data (WAV Files) to a USB Flash Drive
Performing a record operation with the Digital Piano’s audio recorder stores the data as a WAV file (automatically assigned a name from TAKE00.WAV to TAKE99.WAV) in the MUSICDAT folder (which is created automatically by the format operation) on the USB flash drive. You also can connect a USB flash drive to a computer and change the names of audio data (WAV) files to the format “TAKExx.WAV”*, and move them to the MUSICDAT folder. Then you will be able to play them back on the Digital Piano.
*xx = 00 to 99
USB Flash Drive and USB Flash Drive Port Handling Precautions

•Avoid using a USB flash drive under the following conditions. Such conditions can corrupt data stored on the USB flash drive.
–Areas subjected to high temperature, high humidity, or corrosive gas
–Areas subjected to strong electrostatic charge and digital noise
•Never remove the USB flash drive while data is being written to or loaded from it. Doing so can corrupt the data on the USB flash drive and damage the USB flash drive port.

Connecting a USB Flash Drive to and Detaching It from the Digital Piano
IMPORTANT!
•When you plug in a USB flash drive, the Digital Piano initially needs to “mount” the USB flash drive and prepare for data exchange. Note that Digital Piano operations are momentarily disabled while a USB flash drive mounting sequence is being performed. While the mounting process is in progress, the message “Mounting Media” will be displayed on the display. It may take up to 10 or 20 seconds or even longer for a USB flash drive to be mounted. Do not attempt to perform any operation on the Digital Piano while a mounting sequence is in progress. A USB flash drive needs to be mounted each time it is connected to the Digital Piano.
•If you turn on the Digital Piano while USB flash drive is plugged into the Digital Piano, the mount operation described above will need to be performed, and Digital Piano operation will be disabled during that time.
•Never plug any other device besides a USB flash drive into the USB flash drive port.
