				folder, as shown below. So
		2 MIX		you can export only a ste-
				reo WAV file in the "2
				MIX" folder (indicated by

3)Highlight "USB" by rotating the [MENU/ENTER] knob, then press the [MENU/ENTER] knob.

The display shows the USB menu screen.

<Note>: By default, the disk protect func- tion is enabled. In this condition, when the MR-8HD enters the USB mode, “<DISK PRO- TECTED>” is shown in the USB screen, as above.

<Note>: While the MR-8HD is in the USB mode, all keys except the [STOP] key are ineffective. Pressing the [STOP] key exits the USB mode.

5)Connect the MR-8HD to a personal computer using a USB cable.

6)Open "My computer" on the computer screen.

You see the "Removable disk" drive added on the computer. The first time you connect the MR-8HD, thedevice driver is installed automatically.

7)Open the added Removable disk drive, and select the stereo WAV file in the desired song folder, then copy to the computer.

When you open the added Removable disk drive, the contents of the MR-8HD hard disk are shown, in which you can see all the song folders.

Open the "2 MIX" folder in the desired song folder, and select the stereo WAV file, then copy it to the computer.

While copying data, the [RECORD] key indicator of the MR-8HD lights (flashes), showing that the hard disk is being accessed. When data copy completes, the indicator turns off.

<Note>: After copying a WAV file in the folder to a computer, the original file remains. How- ever, if you execute "move to another folder",the original file on the disk is lost.

4)Rotate the [MENU/ENTER] knob to move the cursor to “USB Device Mode”, and press the [MENU/ENTER] knob.

The MR-8HD enters the USB mode and the display shows the screen as below.

8)When the data export completes, disconnect the MR-8HD from the personal computer.

<Note>: To disconnect the MR-8HD from the personal computer after completing the data export, make sure that the [RECORD] key indicator is not lit, and follow the procedure for hardware disconnection of Windows.
