Data

Whenever you switch songs or turn off the power, the D3200’s Auto Save function will automatically save (to the hard drive) the songs or parameters that you recorded or ed- ited.

This means that you do not need to perform any particular operations to save your data as long as you power -off using the procedure described on page 2. (p.42 “Saving a song”).

You do need to save the effect settings if you have edited effect pro- grams.

The data saving operations explained in this section are used when you have created important data on the D3200 that you want to save on a CD-R/RW or your computer, or when you want to delete data from the hard disk to obtain more free space.

Depending on the type of data, you can use either Backup or Export to save it.

Data you save in this way can be used again by restoring or importing it.
