4 To execute the backup, move the cursor to the BACKUP button and press the [ENTER] key.

A popup window will ask you to confirm the opera- tion.

NOTE

•If previously-recorded CD-RW media is inserted in the CD- RW drive, a popup window will ask you if it is OK to erase the media first. Move the cursor to the OK button and press the [ENTER] key, and the media will be erased.

•If a CD-ROM or previously-recorded CD-R media is inserted in the CD-RW drive, a popup window with a message of “Change Media, Please” will appear, and the media will be ejected. Remove the media, and replace it with writable media.

5 Move the cursor to the OK button and press the [ENTER] key.

Writing to the CD-R/RW media will begin. If you decide to cancel the backup operation, move the cursor to the CANCEL button and press the [ENTER] key.

While the backup operation is being executed, a popup window will indicate the progress of the operation. When the backup has been completed, you will return to step 2.

If the backup data does not fit on a single volume of media, a message of “Number Ejected Media, Insert Blank Media.” will appear, and the media will be ejected. Insert a new media volume. Then move the cursor to the OK button and press the [ENTER] key.

NOTE

•You cannot execute the backup operation without selecting data.

•If you execute the backup operation with the AS AW2400 but- ton turned on, system data (the settings you make in the UTILITY screen or the MIDI screen) will be backed up on the media together with the selected data.

•If you execute the backup operation with the AS AW2816 but- ton turned on, data other than audio tracks will not be backed up. All virtual tracks for tracks 1–16 are backup up. Tracks 17– 24 are not backed up. Only the current track data for stereo track is backed up. Only 44.1kHz/16-bit songs are supported.

•When you restore data that was backed up to more than one media volume, you must insert the media in the order in which it was backed up. Be sure to make a note of the backup sequence on the label surface of each CD-R/RW disc.
