Saving Your Song - Yamaha AW2816 Owner's Manual

Let's record on the AW2816
3
On the AW2816, all data required for reproducing a
completed composition (mixer, settings, recorder set-
tings, audio data, etc.) is saved on the internal hard
disk as a "song."
If you accidentally turn off the power of the AW2816
before saving the song, the audio track and stereo
track data as well as the mixer settings will be lost.
When you have finished creating your song, you must
use the following procedure to save it.
• If you turn off the power of the AW2816 without
saving the current song, any changes you made to
the settings within the current song will be lost.
• To turn off the power of the AW2816, you must use
the Shutdown procedure ( P.12).

Tip!
Instead of pressing the [SONG] key in step 1, you can

to access the Song list page, and the cursor will auto-
matically move to the SAVE button. This method can

Tip!
• In actuality, performing certain operations (such as
Shutdown) will automatically save the current song.
However as a precaution against the power being
accidentally turned off during editing, we strongly
recommend that you save the song regularly, not
just after mixdown is completed.
• For details on how to load a song that was saved,
refer to page 149.
