When the operation is completed, the display will indicate “Completed.” Click the OK button (or press the panel YES key).

When you execute formatting, a warning dialog box will appear if the drive contains even one song for which Protect is turned on. (p.121)

5. Load system

This lets you easily update the operating system of the D3200. For the update procedure, refer to “Upgrading the system” (p.96).

6. Creating a system recovery

CD

The D3200’s system is stored on the hard disk. At start-up, the system is loaded into the system area, and then begins running.

If the hard disk should fail, it is possible in the worst case that the system will become incapable of starting up.

As a safeguard against such emergencies, we suggest that you create a system recovery start-up CD.

(1)Access the SYSTEM/MIDI “DiskUtility” tab page, and click the Save System button to open the Save System dialog box.

(2)Insert a disc into the CD-R/RW drive. Use a blank disc.

You must use a blank disc to create a system recovery disc. You cannot create a system recovery disc using a disc that al- ready contains data.

(3)Click the Yes button (or the panel YES key) to begin creating the system recovery disc.

If you decide not to create a recovery disc, click the No button (or press the panel NO key).

(4)When the recovery disc has been created, the display will indicate “Completed”; click the OK button (or press the panel YES key).

7. Drive capacity

This section explains how you can make the best use of the D3200’s song drive capacity. For explanatory purposes, we will assume that you have recorded a song with the follow- ing structure.

Intro

A

B

Break

Solo

Ending

The Edit Track operation described here does not need to be per- formed often. It is sufficient to perform this operation when the “Disk too busy.” indication appears, or when you want to recov- er disk drive capacity after completing a song.

1. You began recording on track 1 from the beginning of the song, and only played during the Intro, Break, and Ending on the first take.

Intro

Silence

Break

Silence

Ending

In this case, silence (actually, noise-level sound) will have been recorded in the A, B, and Solo sections of track 1, unnecessarily using up valuable drive space.

To keep only the audio data that you are actually using

Execute the TRACK “EditTrk” tab page “Erase Silence” command on track 1 for the region between the beginning and end of the song.

This will cause audio data to be preserved only for the actu- ally-used regions, so that only the intro, break, and ending will occupy drive space.

2. You began recording on track 1 from the beginning of the song, and played the Intro, A, B, and Break during the first take, and then recorded a second take, over- writing the original A and B with A’ and B’.

Intro

A

B

Break

Recorded second take

B

Break

2nd take

 

A'

B'

 

 

 

 

 

In this case, A and B of the first take remain “beneath” A’ and B’ of track 1, in order to preserve the data for Undo and also because they are a continuous piece of audio data with the Intro and Break. This means that Intro, A+A’, B+B’, and Break are all occupying disk space.
