Data Type

This CD-ROM includes two types of data: application software and sampled audio data.
The applications help you to edit the sound data of the A5000/A4000 on the PC, and allow you to exchange the wave data you
created between your PC and the A5000/A4000.
You can import the audio data from an audio CD player (or CD player function on your PC) to the A5000/A4000 via its INPUT
jacks. For the detailed information refer to the A5000/A4000 Owner’s Manual.
(In the case of an audio CD player) the application software is accomodated in the track 1 and the sampled audio data are supplied in
the following tracks.
Never attempt to play back the track 1, in which the application software is located, on an audio CD player. Doing so may result in
damage to your hearing as well as to your CD player/audio speakers.
