: Use the [USB] port for connection to a personal computer. Do not connect the [USB HOST] port to a personal computer. :Only Windows Me, 2000 and XP computers, as well as Macintosh computers with OS X or higher, can be used with the MR-8mkII. Other computers cannot be used. Check your computer before making connection. When making USB connection with a Macintosh computer, note that only Mac OS X or higher is supported. Do not connect to a Macintosh computer with the earlier version. The song data on the MR-8mkII may be damaged. * All company names and model names mentioned in this manual are trademarks or registered trademarks of their respective holders. When exporting song data on the CompactFlashTM Card to a personal computer for backup, always export the whole song folder. You cannot export individual track data. See “Archiving a song” on page 121 for details about song data backup. :You can export only a stereo WAV file which is converted from a pair of mono WAV files on tracks 7/8, as described earlier in "WAV file conversion". A mono WAV file or undo file cannot be exported to a personal computer. See the next page for details about the export- able files. By default, the “card protect” function which is effective in the USB mode is set to “On”. In this condition, the MR-8mkII can export data to a personal computer but cannot import data from a computer. This is for protecting the MR-8mkII CompactFlashTM Card from import- ing a file from a computer inappropriately and destroying the MR-8mkII song data. You can enable or disable this function, how- ever, we recommend using the MR-8mkII by setting it to “On”. If you use the MR-8mkII by setting the “card protect” function to “Off”, read “Archiving a song” on page 121 before using. See page 120 for details about how to make the “card pro- tection” setting. 118 MR-8mkII Owner’s Manual (Data export to a personal computer) Exporting a WAV file to a personal computer The following describes the procedure for exporting a WAV file to a Windows ME computer.
