Import and Export of Foreign Files

Import and Export provide the ability to convert audio to and from the Shortcut format

and a variety of other file formats, as well as reading and writing those files on a selection of

disk media that use various data and file formats. The currently supported file types are:

.WAV at 44.1KHz or 48KHz sample rate, mono or stereo.

.BWF (Broadcast .WAV) at 44.1KHz or 48KHz sample rate, mono or stereo.

AIFF at 44.1KHz or 48KHz sample rate, mono or stereo.

SDII at 44.1KHz or 48KHz sample rate, mono or stereo. (on HFS format disks only)

The currently supported disk formats are MSDOS (IBM PC and compatibles) and HFS

(Apple Macintosh®).

The currently supported disk types are Iomega Zip 100, Zip 250 and Jaz 1G and 2G.

Note that the Shortcut must be running Softcode to perform these functions. Import and

Export to formats other than DigiCart/II are not supported by the internal (ROM based) code.

For more information see the section on installing Softcode.

Importing Files

1. Place the disk containing the file to be imported in the external drive.

2. Select the Shortcut directory that will receive the files, either by using the Scrub Wheel or

Arrow Keys to highlight it in the Directories display, or by entering the directory.

3. Press MENU and select Item 9. IMPORT FILES, then press ENTER

Press the MENU key and press the 9 KEY.

Press DIR, then MENU, then the 5 key to log onto the external disk, then press ENTER.

4. The display will show:

IMPORT 48K [ROOT DIRECTORY]

[MUSIC]

[SOUND EFFECTS]

NEWSCAST.WAV 3:30

PROMO.WAV :15

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT.WAV :30

5. The top line shows the Sample rate of the Shortcut directory you selected in step 1, and the

name of the directory on the external disk that is currently being displayed. This always

starts out as ROOT DIRECTORY as shown. In the example above, lines 3 and 4 of the

display are subdirectories on the external disk, shown as [MUSIC] and [SOUND

EFFECTS]. Below them are three files that are in the Root Directory, each followed by

their Run Time. The second line is a command line, <IMPORT ENTIRE DIRECTORY>.

This allows all of the files in the current directory (but not the subdirectories) to be

imported.
